ISOLATION- John Lennon

C  C/G#  C/A  C7  F  C
   C                 C/G#
People say we got it made
     C/A                    C7
Don't they know we're so afraid?
 F  C
Isolation

We're afraid to be alone
Everybody's got to have a home
Isolation
Just a boy and a little girl
Trying to change the whole wide world
Isolation
The world is just a little town
Everybody trying to put us down

BRIDGE:
  C                G F                G  C
I don't expect you     to understand
                   G F              G F
After you've caused    so much pain
                G F                    G F
But then again,    you're not to blame
		        G  F             G  C  C/G# C/A C7  F  C
You're just a human, a victim of the insane

We're afraid of everyone
Afraid of the sun
Isolation
The sun will never disappear
But the world may not have many years
Isolation
