Lyrics

When you're (Am)young and so in love as (Am7)we,

(Am6)and (Dm)bewildered by the world we (Dm7)see,

(Dm6)why do (Bbdim)people hurt us (A7)so,

only (Dm)those in love would know.

What a (C)town (Cb)without (G7)pity (B7)can (E7)do!

If we (Am)stop to gaze upon a (Am7)star,

(Am6)people (Dm)talk about how bad we (Dm7)are,

(Dm6)ours is (Bbdim)not an easy (A7)age,

we're like (Dm)tigers in a cage.

What a (C)town (Cb)without (G7)pity can (C)do!

The (C7)young have (F)problems, many problems,

we need an (Eb7)understanding (D7)heart.

Why don't they (G)help us, try to help us,

before this (Dm)clay and (Dm7)granite (F#dim)planet falls (G7)apart!

(E7)Take these (Am)eager lips and hold me (Am7)fast,

(Am6)I'm (Dm)afraid this kind of joy can't (Dm7)last,

(Dm6)how can (Gm)we keep love (A7)alive,

how can (Dm)anything survive, when these (C)little (Cb)minds (G7)tear you in (E7)two.

What a (F)town without (G7)pity can (E)do!

(E7)No, it (Am)isn't very (Ab7)pretty (G7)what a (Gb7)town (F7)without (E7)pity (E7#5)can (Am)do.

(E7)When you're (Am)young and so in love as (Am7)we,

(Am6)and (Dm)bewildered by the world we (Dm7)see,

(Dm6)why do (Bbdim)people hurt us (A7)so,

only (Dm)those in love would know.

What a (C)town (Cb)without (G7)pity (B7)can (E7)do!

If we (Am)stop to gaze upon a (Am7)star,

(Am6)people (Dm)talk about how bad we (Dm7)are,

(Dm6)ours is (Bbdim)not an easy (A7)age,

we're like (Dm)tigers in a cage.

What a (C)town (Cb)without (G7)pity can (C)do!

The (C7)young have (F)problems, many problems,

we need an (Eb7)understanding (D7)heart.

Why don't they (G)help us, try to help us,

before this (Dm)clay and (Dm7)granite (F#dim)planet falls (G7)apart!

(E7)Take these (Am)eager lips and hold me (Am7)fast,

(Am6)I'm (Dm)afraid this kind of joy can't (Dm7)last,

(Dm6)how can (Gm)we keep love (A7)alive,

how can (Dm)anything survive, when these (C)little (Cb)minds (G7)tear you in (E7)two.

What a (F)town without (G7)pity can (E)do!

(E7)No, it (Am)isn't very (Ab7)pretty (G7)what a (Gb7)town (F7)without (E7)pity (E7#5)can (Am)do.
