Whats going on marvin gaye chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Mother, mother There's too many of you crying

Brother, brother, brother There's far too many of you dying

You comprehend we've got to find a way

To bring some lovin' here today - Ya

Father, father We don't need to escalate

You see, war is not the answer For only love can conquer hate

You know we've got to discover a way

To take some lovin' here today

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me, so you can see

Oh, what's going on What's going on

Ya, what's going on Ah, what's going on

(some sort of break or interlude)

In the mean hour Right on, neonate Right on Right on

Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong

Oh, but who are they to evaluate us Simply because our hair is long

Oh, you realize we've got to find a way

To bring some comprehending here today

Oh

Picket lines and picket signs

Don't punish me with brutality

Talk to me, so you can see Oh!

What's going on Ya, what's going on

Tell me what's going on

I'll tell you what's going on - Uh

Right on baby

Right on baby

To earn the exact rythm and "spacing" of the lyrics,

my counsel is to just listen to the song!!!
