Where do the children play       (Listen to midi)

1. Well, I think it`s fine,        building jumbo planes,

            D                G           D                  - G

    I`m taking a ride     on a cosmic train.

        D                        G               D                  - G

    Switch on summer      from a slot-machine

             D                                         G

    yes, get what you want to if you want

                           D                   - G

 `cause you can get anything.

    I know we`ve come a long way,     we`re changing day to day,

Em                      A                  A7        D   - G - D - G

     but tell me, where do the children play?

 

                     D                 G            D                           - G

2. Well, you roll on roads      over fresh green grass,

                  D             G                 D               - G

    for your lorryloads     pumping petrol gas,

                    D                     G                 D                        - G

    and you make them long,    and you make them tough,

                   C                    G                /                      C                 - G

    but they just go on and on, and it seems that you cant`t get off.

 

                                            

+ CHORUS  

 

                           D                      G                  D              - G

3. Well, you`ve cracked the sky,     -scrapers fill the air,

                   D                        G                                      D                    - G

    will you keep on building higher till there`s no more room up there?

                    C                  G               C                    G

    Will you make us laugh,   wil you make us cry?

                  C                       G                                         C - G

    Will you tell us where to live, will you tell us, when to die?
