[Verse]
D
Really hate the running
D
Really hate the game
D                                         A
Looking at them all I wanna be unborn again
D
Their suit is getting tighter
D
Although they're getting thin
D                                                      A
The flies are crawling on their face and trying to get in
 
 
[Bridge]
E
People say that we're to blame I say
D7                        A    G/A    D/A    A
No, no, no it's just the game
 
 
[Chorus]
D
Must we let them fool us? no, no, no
D                                   A
Have we got our freedom? no, no, no
D
Is it getting better? no, no, no
D                                A
Do we love each other? no, no, no
E                     D7       A    G/A     D/A    A
Must we wait forever? no, no, no
 
[Guitar Part]
Am
(Shift between Am and hop into a G quickly a couple of times in a blues sort of way)
 
[Verse]
D
Heads are getting stronger bodies getting weak
D                                               A
Looking at them all it feels good to be a freak
D
Their hands are getting closer they're reaching out so far
D                                                 A
The greenies gonna get them make them serve stars
 
[Bridge]
E
Tell them how it is and they say
D7                     A    G/A    D/A    A
No no no we know it all (We know it all)
 
[Chorus]
D
Must we let them fool us? no, no, no
D                                   A
Have we got our freedom? no, no, no
D
Is it getting better? no, no, no
D                                A
Do we love each other? no, no, no
E                     D7       A    G/A     D/A    A
Must we wait forever? no, no, no

D
The washing's getting dirty the air is getting thin
D                                                       A
It's all in such a mess that no one knows where to begin
D
They talk about creating but all they do is kill
D                                               A
They say we're gonna mend it but they never will
 
[Bridge]
E
Poison in the rain but they say
D7                        A    G/A    D/A    A
No no no we ain't to blame
 
[Chorus]
D
Must we let them fool us? no, no, no
D                                   A
Have we got our freedom? no, no, no
D
Is it getting better? no, no, no
D                                A
Do we love each other? no, no, no
E                     D7       A    G/A     D/A    A
Must we wait forever? no, no, no (Classic Gillan scream)
