...SAVE THE CHILDREN... by Marvin Gaye
-----------------------...............

*from 'What's Going On' (1971)*


Intro:

Am
 I just want to ask a question; who really cares?
                      E7                Dm     E7
To save a world in de-spair? Who really cares?

Verse 1:

                Bm    Am
There'll come a time, when the world won't be singin',
Bm                   Dm
 Flowers won't grow; bells won't be ringin'.
Gm                                  Dm
 Who really cares? Who's willing to try,
Am         Fm6           Dm          G13
 To save a world, that's destined to die?

Verse 2:

       Bm                 Am
When I look at the world, it fills me with sorrow,
Bm                          Dm
 Little children today, are really gonna suffer tomorrow.
Gm                 Dm
 Oh, what a shame, such a bad way to live;
    Am        Fm6    Dm            G13
All who is to blame; we can't stop livin'.

Chorus 1:

Bm                    C#m
 Live, live for life, but let live, everybody,
Adim                                     Dm
 Live life for the children, oh, for the children.
         G7
You see, let's save the children, let's save all the children.
Cmaj7                     Dm
 Save the babies,save the babies.
                                       Cmaj7
If you wanna love, you got to save the babies,
                  Dm                          G7
You will save the babies; all of the children.

Bridge 1:

      Dm                Em
But...who really cares? Who's willing to try?
        E7            Am    E7
Yes, to save a world, yeah, save our sweet world.
Am                     Dm          G7
 Save a world, that is destined to die.

Coda:

Em    Dm
 Oh...oh.. la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Em        Dm
 Oh...oh, dig it everybody.
