CHORUS:
-5 6   -6  -5 -4
People are people

-4 -5    6    -6 -5
So why should it be

6   -5  6  -5    6
You and I should get

-5 6  -5  -6 5 -4
Along so awfully

-5 6   -6  -5 -4
People are people

-4 -5    6    -6 -5
So why should it be

6   -5  6  -5    6
You and I should get

-5 6  -5  -6 5 -4
Along so awfully


-4 -4    -5 6 -6    -5 -4

So we're different colours

-4  -4    -4 -3” -3”  -3”
And we're different creeds

-3” -3” 3 3   -2 -2”  3   -3” -2 -2”  -2
And different people have different needs

-4   -4 -6 -6 -6  -5   -4
It's  obvious you hate me

-4     -4   -4   -3”-3”   -3”
Though I've done nothing wrong

-3”  -3”3  -2-2”  -3”  3  -2 -2”   -3” -2  -2”  3
I've never  even  met you so what could I have done


-1  -1   -1 -3” 3

 I can't understand

-3”   1    1 -1
What makes a man

-1   1 -1 -3”  3
Hate another  man

3   -3”  1  1  -1
Help me understand

CHORUS

 

-4   -4    -5 6

Now you're punching

-6    -6   -5 -4
And you're kicking
-4  -4     -4 -3”  -3” -3”

And you're shouting at me

-3” 3 -2 -2” -3” 3   -2 -2” -3”-2” 3
I'm relying  on your common  decency

-4 -4  -6  -6 -6  -5 -4
So far it  hasn't surfaced

-4  -4  -4   -3” -3” -3”
But I'm sure it  exists

-3” -3”  -3”  3  -2   -2” -3” 3 
It just takes a while to travel

 -2  -2”   -3” -2  -2”  3
From your head to your fists

 

-1  -1   -1 -3” 3

 I can't understand

-3”   1    1 -1
What makes a man

-1   1 -1 -3”  3
Hate another  man

3   -3”  1  1  -1
Help me understand


CHORUS

-1  -1   -1 -3” 3

 I can't understand

-3”   1    1 -1
What makes a man

-1   1 -1 -3”  3
Hate another  man

3   -3”  1  1  -1
Help me understand

(repeat 6 times, fade out)

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
