Joe South – Games People Play Chords

Lada da, da da da, da da
Lada da, da da da, dadee
Talking about you and me
And the games people play

Oh the games people play now, every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean
And they wile away the hours, in their ivory towers
Till they’re covered up with flowers, in the back of a black limousine

Lada da, da da da, da da
Lada da, da da da, dadee
Talking about you and me
And the games people play

Oh we make one another cry, break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die, that the other was to blame
Neither one will ever give in, so we gaze at our eight by ten
Thinking about the things that might have been
it’s a dirty rotten shame

Lada da, da da da, da da
Lada da, da da da, dadee
Talking about you and me
And the games people play

People walking up to you, singing glory halle lulia
And they’re trying to sock it to you, in the name of the Lord
They’re gonna teach you how to meditate, read your horoscope, cheat your fate
And further more to hell with hate,
come on and get on board

Lada da, da da da, da da
Lada da, da da da, dadee
Talking about you and me
And the games people play

Look around tell me what you see, what’s happening to you and me
God grant me the ser enity, to remember who I am
Cause you’ve given up your sanity, for your pride and your vanity
Turned your back on hu manity,
and you don’t give a damn

Lada da, da da da, da da
Lada da, da da da, dadee
Talking about you and me
And the games people play
