 What's wrong with the world today?

Things just got to get better

G#m   F#   E                  D#  G#m
 Sho' ain't what the leaders say

F#                      E     D#
Maybe we should write a letter

G#m     F#   
Dear Mr. Man

E              D#
We don't understand

G#m                  F#   
Why poor people keep struggling

    E                        D#
But you don't lend a helping hand

G#m     F#   E                  
Matthew 5:5 say,

E                          D#
The meek shall inherit the earth

G#m                   F#  
We wanna be down that way

Who said that to kill is a sin

     G#m           F#     E              
Then started every single war

D#                      G#m
That you're people been in?

G#m           F#    
Who said that water

E             D#        G#m
Is a precious commodity

G#m     F#            E              
Then dropped a big old black oil slick

D#      G#m
In the deep blue sea?

G#m     F#   E                 
Who told me, Mr. Man

     E                 D#
That working round the clock

G#m   F#       E                D#    G#m
Would buy me a big house in the 'hood

G#m            F#     E               D#
With cigarette ads on every block

G#m     F#   E                  D#
Who told me Mr. Man

G#m          F#       E         D#
That I got a right to moan?

G#m            F#      E           D#    G#m
How 'bout this big ol' hole in the ozone?

G#m     F#   E                  
What's wrong with the world today

G#m         F#         E               D#
Things just got to get better

G#m     F#    E             D#    G#m
Dear Mr. Man, we don't understand

F#              E       D#
Maybe we should write a letter

       G#m                F#                      
Listen, ain't no sense in voting

E                          D#
Same song with a different name

G#m                 F#             
Might not be in the back of the bus

       E      D#.                G#m
But it sho' feel just the same

G#m          F#    E         D#     G#m
Ain't nothin' fair about welfare

G#m      F#            E      D#
Ain't no assistance in AIDS

G#m           F#           E           D#     G#m
Ain't nothing affirmative about you're actions

E                  D#
Till the people get paid

       G#m                F#      
You're thousand years are up

E                         D#
Now you got to share the land

G#m     F#       E          D#
