Verse:
     E MajorE            G+G   A augmentedA
A majorA little feeling in my gut that I get of late
    E MajorE                 G+G     A augmentedA
When I think about these cats running the world with hate
 E MajorE  G+G      A augmentedA   E MajorE     G+G A augmentedA
I say: something's gotta give

    E MajorE              G+G   A augmentedA
Got the whole world fighting for the Texas tea
   E MajorE            G+G     A augmentedA
Got a little for you, I got a little for me
  E MajorE         G+G    A augmentedA   E MajorE    G+G A augmentedA
But the, the kettle's leaking like a sieve

       E MajorE               G+G       A augmentedA
Now there's a puddle on the floor, there's a puddle in the sky
       E MajorE              G+G     A augmentedA
The kettle's leaking so much oh man it's burning my eyes yeah
E MajorE        G+G     A augmentedA   E MajorE    G+G A augmentedA
 Can't you just throw that damper out

      E MajorE           G+G   A augmentedA
And on the subject of a-throwing stuff away
      E MajorE             G+G    A augmentedA
I know some deaf men who can't hear a word we say
      E MajorE      G+G    A augmentedA   E MajorE    G+G   A augmentedA
No matter,  No matter how loud we do shout   And I say

Chorus:

E MajorE          G+G     A augmentedA
 Something's gotta give right now boy
E MajorE          G+G     A augmentedA  D MajorD  E MajorE
 Something's gotta give right now for you
E MajorE          G+G     A augmentedA
 Something's gotta give right now man
E MajorE          G+G     A augmentedA
 Something's gotta give right now

Verse:

   E MajorE             G+G   A augmentedA
I was reading the newspaper just yesterday
    E MajorE                G+G  A augmentedA
Got the headlines reading God bless the U.S.A.
  E MajorE     G+G     A augmentedA  E MajorE    G+G A augmentedA
And I thought: God Bless Everyone
       E MajorE              G+G    A augmentedA
God bless the people in New York when they were attacked
       E MajorE              G+G  A augmentedA
God bless the children being bombed there in Iraq
       E MajorE           G+G       A augmentedA
God bless the goddamn junkie with a monkey on his back
     E MajorE          G+G   A augmentedA
God bless everybody under the sun
     E MajorE             G+G     A augmentedA
Cause the world ahead will end if we don't got love
    E MajorE             G+G   A augmentedA
Do your job and pay attent-ion to God above
   E MajorE            G+G      A augmentedA      E MajorE           G+G   A augmentedA
But eventually the only guarantee will be that the tea in your tank will run dry
    E MajorE              G+G    A augmentedA
Because without love you know there aint no life
    E MajorE            G+G     A augmentedA
You can duplicate and bottle it up all you like
  E MajorE             G+G     A augmentedA   E MajorE     G+G      A augmentedA
But it   doesn't mean you're gonna get another try   a get another try boy
