A
Oh, the games people play now,
E
every night and every day now
D E7
Never meaning what they say now,
A
never saying what they mean
While they wile away the hours,
E
in their ivory towers
D E7
Till they're covered up with flowers,
A
in the back of a black limousine
A
La-da da da da da da da
E
La-da da da da da de
D E7
Talking 'bout you and me,
A
and the games people play, now
Oh, we make one another cry,
E
break a heart then we say goodbye
D E7
Cross our hearts and we hope to die,
A
that the other was to blame
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/joe_south/games_people_play_crd_ver_2.html ]
Neither one will ever give in,
E
so we gaze at our eight by ten
D E7
Thinking 'bout the things that might have been,
A
it's a dirty rotten shame
A
La-da da da da da da da
E
La-da da da da da de
D E7
Talking 'bout you and me,
A
and the games people play, now
A E D E7 A 2x
People walking up to you,
E
singing glory hallelulia
D E7
And they're tryin to sock it to you,
A
in the name of the Lord
They're gonna teach you how to meditate,
E
read your horoscope, cheat your faith
D E7
And further more to hell with hate,
A
come on and get on board
A
La-da da da da da da da
E

D E7
Talking 'bout you and me,
A
and the games people play
Look around tell me what you see,
E
what's happening to you and me
D E7
God grant me the serenity,
A
to just remember who I am, woh ah
Cause you've given up your sanity,
E
for your pride and your vanity
D E7
Turn your back on humanity,
A
and you don't give a da da da da da
A
La-da da da da da da da
E
La-da da da da da de
D E7
Talking 'bout you and me,
A
and the games people play 3x
