...SAVE THE CHILDREN... by Marvin Gaye
-----------------------...............
*from 'What's Going On' (1971)*
Intro:
Am9 E7b9
I just want to ask a question; who really cares?
Dm7 E7b9 Dm7 G7b9
To save a world in de-spair? Who really cares?
Verse 1:
Em9 Dm13
There'll come a time, when the world won't be singin',
Em9 Dm13
Flowers won't grow; bells won't be ringin'.
Cm7 Bbmaj7
Who really cares? Who's willing to try,
Am9 E7b9 Dm13 G7b9
To save a world, that's destined to die?
Verse 2:
Em9 Dm13
When I look at the world, it fills me with sorrow,
Em9 Dm13
Little children today, are really gonna suffer tomorrow.
Cm7 Bbmaj7
Oh, what a shame, such a bad way to live;
Am9 E7b9 Dm13 G7b9
Oh, who is to blame, when we can't stop livin'?
Chorus 1:
Em9 Amaj7
Live, live for life, but let live, everybody,
A7b9 Dm9
Live life for the children, oh, for the children.
G13
You see, let's save the children, let's save all the children.
Cmaj7 Am7 Dm9 G13
Save the babies, save the babies.
Cmaj7 Am7
If you wanna love, you got to save the babies,
Dm9 G13
You will save the babies; all of the children.
Bridge 1:
Dm7 C7 Fmaj7
But... who really cares? Who's willing to try?
Am9 E7b9 Am9 E7b9
Yes, to save a world, yeah, save our sweet world.
Am9 E7b9 Dm9 G7b9
Save a world, that is destined to die.
Coda:

Oh... oh... la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Oh... oh... dig it everybody.
