Supertramp - The Logical Song
Capo on 1st fret.
D G Am
When I was young, it seemed that llfe was so wonderful,
F# G Em
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
D G Am
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
F# G Em
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully, watching me.
D G Am
But then they sent me away, to teach me how to be sensible,
F# G Em
logical, oh, responsible practical.
D G Am
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
F# G Em
oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical.
D G D
There are times when all the world's asleep,
G D G E F# G E
the questions run too deep for such a simple man
D G
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
D G D Em F# G E Em F# G E
I know it sounds absurd. Please tell me who I am.
D G Am
I said, now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
F# G Em
a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
D G Am
Oh, won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable,
F# G Am
respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable!

D G D
At night, when all the world's asleep,
G D G Em F# G E
the questions run too deep for such a simple man
D G D
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
G D Em F# G E
I know it sounds absurd. Please tell me who I am.
Em F# G E
who I am,
Em F# G E
who I am,
Em F# G E
who I am,
