Tracy Chapman So Lyrics

MATTERS OF THE HEART
:___: = repeat
D D = "Stacato" (play it very short)
Intro:
:C . . . C . DD C . . . C . DD Em . . . Em . DD Em . . . Em . DD:
So you make a litle money
off of sombody elses sweat
so some people starve a little
while you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
while you got fat
Em . DD C
So you grind and grind
and you push and shove
and claim that those most worthy
will get what they diserve
Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
what they diserve...
It can't be true
It can't be true
Because I've seen too many hungry faces
I've seen too many with the likes of you
C . . . C . DD C . . . C .DD Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
it can't be true
For you everything has its price
you give nothing away for free
if silence were truly golden
I guess no one could sleep
Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
no one could sleep
You have money at your fingertips
people at your beck and call
and you're fool enough to think for a price
D Em . . . Em . DD Em . . .
You can have the whole wide world
For all our sakes
and all our lives
We must hope the words that
come from your lips
we must hope those words are lies
for all our sakes
and all our lives
we must hope the dreams,
soulless visiones that you have
are never realized
So you've got a big house
you drive a fancy car
So what if your pockets are full
if you have an empty heart
You snap your fingers
and all the waters part
So what if the people bow down
if they show you no regard
Your left hand
always watshes your right
So what if you trust in God
if you can't sleep at night
You think you've made it
You think you've got what everyone wants
So what if you're a big fat man
D (let ring)
with an empty little heart
Who has made a litle money
off of somebody else's sweat
Who watched the people starve
while you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD
while you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD
you got fat
Em . . . Em . DD Em (let ring)
you got fat!!!
