The Logical Song

  Am                              F           Em7
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful
   G                   F          F#dim
A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical
             Am                                  F          Em7
And all the birds in the trees, well, they'd be singing so happily
     G              F         F#dim
Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully, watching me

[Verse 2]
               Am                        F         Em7
But then they sent me away, to teach me how to be sensible
 G               F          F#dim
Logical, oh, responsible, practical
                Am                            F        Em7
And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable
      G                F        F#dim
Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical

[Bridge]
           C                            C6
There are times when all the world's asleep
                       F                      Bb Bb/A Bb/G Bb/F
The questions run too deep for such a simple man
            C                                C6
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
                    F                             Bb Bb/A Bb/G Bb/F
I know it sounds absurd, but please tell me who I am

[Verse 3]
            Am                               F             Em7
I said, now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical
   G             F         F#dim
A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal
               Am                              F             Em7
Oh, won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable
    G                F           F#dim
Respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable
