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

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


Intro:

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

Verse 1:

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

Verse 2:

       Bm
When I look at the world,
Am
 It fills me with sorrow,
Bm
 Little children today,
    Dm
Are really gonna,
Suffer tomorrow.
Gm
 Oh what a shame,
Dm
 Such a bad way to live,
    Am        Fm6
All who is to blame,
Dm             G13
 We can't stop livin'.

Chorus 1:

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

Bridge 1:

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

Coda:

Em    Dm
 Oh...oh..
La, la, la,
La, la, la, la.
Em
 Oh...oh,
Dm
 Dig it everybody.
