Lyrics
Well I (D)think it's fine,
(G)building (D)jumbo planes
(G)or (D)taking a ride
on a cosmic train.
(D)Switch on (G)summer from a (D)slot machine.
(G)Yes, (D)get what you want to if you (G)want,
'cause you can get (D)anything.
(Em)I know we've come a (A)long way,
(Em)we're changing day to day.
But tell me, (A)where do the children (D)play
(G)Well you (D)roll on (G)roads over (D)fresh green (G)grass,
for your (D)lorry (G)loads pumping (D)petrol (G)gas.
And you (D)make them (G)long and you (D)make them (G)tough but they (C)just go on and on and it seems that you can't get (G)off.
(Em)I know we've come a (A)long way,
(Em)we're changing day to day.
But tell me, (A)where do the children (D)play?
(G)Well you've (D)cracked the (G)sky,
scrapers (D)fill the (G)air but will you (D)keep on building (G)higher 'til there's no more (D)room up there?
(G)Will you (C)make us laugh,
(G)will you (C)make us cry,
(G)will you (C)tell us when to live,
will you tell us when to die?
(Em7)I know we've (A)come a long (Em7)way,
we're changing day to day.
(Em)But tell me, (A)where do the children (D)play?
(D)Doo, doo, doo, (G)doo, doo, (D)doo,
doo, doo, (G)doo, doo.
(D)Doo, doo, doo, (G)doo, doo, (D)doo,
doo, doo, (G)doo, doo.
