Problem!? Lyrics

"The Problem" by J.J. Cale
From the album "To Tulsa and Back"
Performance notes: True to the laid back "Tulsa Sound"
he helped to create, Cale plays slightly behind the beat.
This can be accomplished by strumming down and up normally,
but accenting the upstroke only. All solos are played
over the intro/verse chords, except for the last solo
where it passes through the Eb F Bb Ab Eb progression
toward the end of it.
Intro 2x: Bb Ab Eb Bb Bb Ab Bb
Have you heard the news, that's going 'round here
The man in charge has got to go
Cause he dances 'round, the problem, boy
and the problem is the man in charge, you know
Now the young knows what, I'm a talkin' 'bout
it's a con in the old man's game
The man in charge he don't, know what he's doin'
He don't know, the world has changed
The power seems to be, so far up
The man on the street ain't got a clue
The high top cats, runnin' your life
Thinks the problem is uh, me and you
(piano solo)
Born in a time, that has gone by
The old tell the young what to do
Have you heard the news, that's going 'round
The problem is the man in charge of you
The problem is the man in charge of you
(guitar solo)
The power seems to be, so far up
The man on the street ain't got a clue
The high top cats, runnin' your life
Thinks the problem is, me and you
(guitar solo II)....Eb F Bb Ab Eb
Have you heard the news, that's a goin' 'round here
The man in charge has to go
The man in charge has got to go
The man in charge got to go
