         Seems this world's got you down
                        Fm               Db
         You're feelin' bad vibrations 'round
                         Ab                Eb
         Well open your eyes girl, look at me (look at me)

         And-a life's gettin' you uptight
         You can change that wrong to right (wrong to right)

         Well, it's a groovy world, girl

         I'm gonna show you to a brand new game (brand new game)
         We're gonna have a good thing, such a good thing, baby

 Verse 4:

         I won't tell you no, no no lies
         When I'm through you'll realized
