Why Can’t We Get Along?

Db                     Abm7 Gbmaj7  A B
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay,   hmm)
Db                     Abm7 Gbmaj7  A B
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay,   hmm)


[Verse 1]
Db                 Abm7
What a lovely day, Withers on the radio
Gbmaj7                 A                   B
Birds are out to play, hear them sing in stereo
Db               Abm7
I can see a rose bloom in my peripheral
Gbmaj7                A              B
Earth between my toes makes me think of how we're finding


[Pre-Chorus]
Db                       Abm7
Cures to diseases in our driverless cars
       Gbmaj7                    A         B
We got plans for a trip to maybe settle on Mars
        Db                         Abm7
We keep building them bridges from shore to shore
          Gbmaj7                     A      B
And we’re living so much longer than ever before


[Chorus]
    Db
So tell me (Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7   Gbmaj7 A              B
Why-ay-ay     can’t we get along, baby?
Db
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7   Gbmaj7 A              B
Why-ay-ay     can’t we get along?


[Verse 2]
Db                  Abm7
I hold up my hands, I ain’t always innocent
    Gbmaj7             A             B
But I don’t understand fighting for the thrill of it
   Db                   Abm7
We try to make it work, harbouring our bitterness
    Gbmaj7               A                 B
But every time it hurts, makes me think of how we can


[Pre-Chorus]
Db                           Abm7
Reach out to people from all over the world
    Gbmaj7                            A         B
And things are getting better for our women and girls
         Db                        Abm7
We got skyscrapers built up to the heavens above
       Gbmaj7                     A        B
We got more people proudly saying love is love


[Chorus]
    Db
So tell me (Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7   Gbmaj7 A              B
Why-ay-ay     can’t we get along, baby?
Db
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7   Gbmaj7 A                 B                Db
Why-ay-ay     why can’t we get, why can’t we get along, girl?
Db
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7 Gbmaj7 A              B
Uuh,        can’t we get along, baby?
Db
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay, hmm)
Abm7 Gbmaj7 A              B
Why         can’t we get along?


[Outro]
Db                     Abm7 Gbmaj7 A B
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay,  hmm)
Db                     Abm7 Gbmaj7 A B
(Du du du du du du du, why-ay-ay,  hmm)
