G              Am 
You ask me why I don't smile 
         Em                   Am 
Is there something troublin' me 
C                       G    Em 
Just open your eyes and look around 
Am                      G 
And tell me what do you see 

Can you understand the things people do 
And the way they treat each other 
And tell me how far has man really come 
When today he's still killing his brother 

Am                      Em 
It makes no difference where you do it 
Am                D 
Or what name you use 
Bb                     F         Dm 
I know if things keep going this way 
Bb                F 
Everyone's gonna lose 
Bb                F       D 
Everybody's gonna lose 

We're doing alright with material things 
You can tell by the way we live 
But with all these things man has learned how to do 
Still hasn't learned how to give 

If you don't have the answers right now 
I'll see you after a while 
But if next time I still look this way 
You'll know why I don't smile...
