D             A    C                 G
You're asking me, "what's it leading to?
D                   G     C7               F
Will we live a long life, will it treat us fair?"
F                            C             Bb
No point asking me because I haven't got a clue
D             A    C            G
You're asking me, "will it be alright?"
D                G  C7              F
If you're asking me don't take my advice
F                                 C               Bb
And don't make me responsible for you living your life

[Chorus]
D           F             G         F              G
I could say there will be laughter, you will never cry
F               G         A
I could just as easily go tell a lie, couldn't I, yeah
F               G      F               G
What would come after, that would be unwise
F                  G                A
If that's what you really want then get a life, get a life, get a life

[Verse 2]
D             A    C            G
You're asking me, "will it be alright?"
D                  G      C7           F
Because I've been around, I have the insight
    F                               C                   Bb
And I was there the first time so I must know what it's like
D                A   C               Bb
If you're asking me, don't take my advice

[Bridge]
Gm               Gm7
Do we learn from all the questions that we ask
Gm6                          Dsus4   D
Do we listen to the past, we never do
     Gm           Gm7
It's up to you to go and make your own mistakes
Gm6
Have a go and break a leg
    C                                      D
But please don't come home crying when you do

[Verse 3]
D             A   C               G
You're asking me, don't take my advice
D                         G    C7              F
Because I've been there before doesn't come to pass
     F                             C                  Bb
That I have all the answers to the questions that you ask
D           A     C                   G
I'm telling you because you're asking me

[Solo]
F  G  F  G  F  G  A

[Bridge]
Gm      Gm7
Anyway, what am I supposed to say
Gm6                            Dsus4    D
Could say everything is really brilliant
Gm          Gm7
Anything to make your worries disappear
Gm6
Put your conscience in the clear
    C                                      D
And make you think there's nothing left to fear

[Verse 4]
D             A    C                 G
You're asking me, "what's it leading to?
D                   G     C7               F
Will we live a long life, will it treat us fair?"
F                            C           Bb
No point asking me because I wasn't even there

[Chorus]
F          G         F          G
First time around it was really grand
F                    G             A
But inside something said to me go get a life, get a life
F            G      F           G
Now that I'm here I can't understand
    F         G          A
Why anyone is asking me, if I could give a damn
            F             G         F              G
I could say there will be laughter, you will never cry
F               G         A
I could just as easily go tell a lie, couldn't I?
     F               G      F               G
Then what would come after, that would be unwise
F                  G                A
If that's what you really want then get a life, get a life, get a life

[Outro]
D                A   C               Bb
If you're asking me, don't take my advice
