Games People Play

                F                    C
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a da de dee
             Bb        C                      F
Talkin' bout you and me, and the games people play


[Verse 1]
F
Oh the games people now
                      C
every night and every day now
                        Bb     C                       F
Never meanin' what they say now never sayin' what they mean
                                           C
So they wile away the hours in their ivory towers
                             Bb             C                 F
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine


[Chorus]
                                     C
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a da de dee
             Bb        C                      F     Dm  D
Talkin' bout you and me, and the games people play


[Verse 2]
                G                                 D
Oh we make one another cry, break a heart then we say goodbye
                        C          D                         G
Cross our hearts and we hope to die, that the other one's to blame
                          G                        D
But neither one will ever give in so we gaze at an eight by ten
                              C              D                         G
Thinkin' bout the things that might have been, and it's a dirty rotten shame


[Chorus]
G
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a da de dee
             C         D                      G
Talkin' bout you and me, and the games people play


[Verse 3]
                F     Em  E
Lotten da la da da da
                  A                        E
People walkin' up to ya singing glory hallelujah
                              D     E                   A
And they're tryin' to sock it to ya, in the name of the Lord
                               A                                E
They're gonna teach you how to meditate read your horoscope and cheat your fate
                   D             E                    A
And furthermore to hell with hate, come on and get on board


[Chorus]
                                     E
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a da de dee
             D         E                      A    F

[Verse 4]
                        Bb                               F
Look around and tell me what you see, what's happened to you and me
                   Eb     F                       Bb
God grand me the serenity, to just remember who I am
                           Bb                             F
Cause you've given up your sanity for your pride and your vanity
                    Eb    F                      Bb
Turn your back on humanity, and you don't give a lot


[Chorus]
                                     F
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a da de dee
             Eb        F                      Bb
Talkin' bout you and me, and the games people play
