Standard (EADGBE)

 I don't believe the things I'm seein'

 I've been wonderin' 'bout some things I've heard

Everybody's crying mercy

 When they don't know the meaning of the word

[Same as above]

A bad enough situation

Is sure enough getting worse

Everybody's crying justice

Just as soon as there's business first

Toe to toe, touch and go

Give a cheer and get your own souvenir

Chords repeat, just listen for it.

Well you know the people running round in circles

Don't know what they're headed for

Everybody's crying peace on earth

Just as soon as we win this war

Straight ahead, gotta knock em dead

So pack your kit, choose your own hypocrite

You don't have to go to off-Broadway

To see something plain absurd

Everybody's crying mercy

When they don't know the meaning of the word

Nobody knows the meaning of the word
