G                               C                      G
Since we first come out walking looking for a way back in
G walks down to                   Em                         C     D
From this crazy world where we're blowing like leaves in the wind
G                                 C                    G walks down to Em
Just trying to make sense of this life any way that we can
    C                 D                G
And fooling ourselves with the ways of man


[Chorus]
G walk up to      C                            G                      
We can do what we want to, we can burn at both ends
               Am                   D
We can go half crazy like we got no sense
                     C                           G
And it's a desperate feeling just to hold it all in
                  C     D                 G
The weight of the world   and the ways of man


[Verse 2]
                                    C                           G
Well we thirst and we hunger and we love and we comfort now and then
                            Em                   C      D
But we fight over money and power like water and bread
G                                C                        G       Em 
But it's simple the reason we're turning our backs on our friends
            C                        D                             G 
'Cause this brotherly love is such a hard thing to get through our heads


[Chorus]              
G                      C                       G 
We can do what we want to, we can burn at both ends
               Am                   D
We can go half crazy like we got no sense
                     C                           G
And it's a desperate feeling just to hold it all in
                  C     D                 G
The weight of the world   and the ways of man


[Solo] 
G  C  G
Am  D
C  G
C  D  G


[Chorus]
G                      C                       G 
We can do what we want to, we can burn at both ends
               Am                        D
We can go half crazy like we got no good sense
                     C                           G
And it's a desperate feeling just to hold it all in
                  C     D                 G
The weight of the world   and the ways of man
                  C     D                 G
The weight of the world   and the ways of man
