                              (Arthur Lee)

Verse 1:

	B7addE [as per intro]
	Where are you walking, I've seen you walking
	Have you been there before?	[cello: A -> F#]
	Walk down your doorsteps, you'll take some more steps
	What did you take them for?

	           A             G6                [A: x77650   G6: x55430]
	There's a private in my boat and he wears
	 D               C             E
	Pins instead of medals on his coat
	            A            G6
	There's a chicken in my nest and she won't
	 D              C            E
	Lay until I've given her my best

	          B7
	At her request she asks for nothing
	         E
	You get nothing in return
	        B7
	If you want she brings you water
	        E                   B
	If you don't then you will burn

[repeat intro riff, 4X w/bass each time]

Verse 2:

	You go through changes, it may seem strange
	Is this what you're put here for?
	You think you're happy and you are happy
	That's what you're happy for

	There's a man who can't decide if he should
	Fight for what his father thinks is right
	There are people wearing frowns who'll screw you up
	But they would rather screw you down

	At my request I ask for nothing
	You get nothing in return
	If you're nice she'll bring me water
	If you're not then I will burn

[repeat intro]

Verse 1:

	Fmaj7                               Cmaj7
	This is the time and life that I am living
	          E                     G
	And I'll face each day with a smile
	         D                                  G
	For the time that I've been given's such a little while
	         D                                G
	And the things that I must do consist of more than style
	              Fmaj7            Am G
	[1: There are places that I am going
	 4: There'll be time for you to start all over]

Verse 2:

	This is the only thing that I am sure of
	And that's all that lives is gonna die
	And there'll always be some people here to wonder why
	And for every happy hello, there will be good-bye
	There'll be time for you to put yourself on

[repeat horn break]

Verse 3:

	Everything I've seen needs rearranging
	And for anyone who thinks it's strange
	Then you should be the first to want to make this change
	And for everyone who thinks that life is just a game
	Do you like the part you're playing
