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

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


Intro:

A minorAm
 I just want,
To ask a question;
Who really cares?
To save a world,
   E7E7
In de-spair;
      DmDm   E7E7
Who really cares?

Verse 1:

        B minorBm
There'll come a time,
A minorAm
 When the world,
Won't be singin',
B minorBm
 Flowers won't grow,
DmDm
 Bells won't be ringin';
G minorGm
 Who really cares?
         DmDm
Who's willing to try,
A minorAm     Fm6Fm6
 To save a world,
    DmDm     G13G13
That's destined to die?

Verse 2:

    B minorBm
When I look at the world,
A minorAm
 It fills me with sorrow,
B minorBm
 Little children today,
  DmDm
Are really gonna,
Suffer tomorrow.
G minorGm
 Oh what a shame,
DmDm
 Such a bad way to live,
  A minorAm    Fm6Fm6
All who is to blame,
DmDm       G13G13
 We can't stop livin'.

Chorus 1:

B minorBm
 Live, live for life,
C# minorC#m
 But let live everybody,

 Live life for the children,
      DmDm
Oh, for the children.

You see, let's,
Save the children,
Let's save,
All the children

 Save the babies,
     DmDm
Save the babies.
If you wanna love,
You got to,
     Cmaj7Cmaj7
Save the babies,
         DmDm
You will save the babies,
           G7G7
All of the children.

But...who really cares?

 Who's willing to try?

 Save a world,

That is destined to die.
