(ver. 1)
John Butler Trio
[Intro]
 
| E     | G  A  | E    | G   A D |   x2
 
[Verse]
         E                        G      A
A little feeling in my gut that I get of late
       E                                  G          A
When I think about these cats running the world with hate
  E    G           A     E         G  A
I say: something's gotta give
 
        E                            G     A
Got the whole world fighting for the Texas tea
      E                       G          A
Got a little for you, I got a little for me
    E                 G       A      E        G  A
But the, the kettle's leaking like a sieve
 
              E                              G             A
Now there's a puddle on the floor, there's a puddle in the sky
             E                           G          A
The kettle's leaking so much oh man it's burning my eyes yeah
E                G          A      E        G  A
  Can't you just throw that damper out
 
           E                     G      A
And on the subject of a-throwing stuff away
            E                         G       A
I know some deaf men who can't hear a word we say
           E            G        A     E        G     A
No matter,    No matter how loud we do shout      And I say
 
[Chorus]
 
E                   G          A
  Something's gotta give right now boy
E                   G          A   D   E
  Something's gotta give right now for you
E                   G          A
  Something's gotta give right now man
E                   G          A
  Something's gotta give right now
 
[Verse]
 
      E                          G     A
I was reading the newspaper just yesterday
        E                               G   A
Got the headlines reading God bless the U.S.A.
    E          G         A    E       G  A
And I thought: God Bless Everyone
              E                            G       A
God bless the people in New York when they were attacked
              E                           G    A
God bless the children being bombed there in Iraq
              E                     G             A
God bless the goddamn junkie with a monkey on his back
          E                   G      A
God bless everybody under the sun
          E                          G         A
Cause the world ahead will end if we don't got love
        E                         G     A
Do your job and pay attent-ion to God above
      E                       G           A            E                     G     A
But eventually the only guarantee will be that the tea in your tank will run dry
        E                           G       A
Because without love you know there aint no life
        E                       G          A
You can duplicate and bottle it up all you like
    E                          G          A      E         G           A
But it     doesn't mean you're gonna get another try     a get another try boy
