[Verse 1]
D A
Oh the games people play now, every night and every day now
G A D
Never meanin' what they say now never sayin' what they mean
D A
So they wile away the hours in their ivory towers
G A D
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine
[Chorus]
D A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee
G A D
I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
[Verse 2]
D A
Oh we make one another cry break a heart then we say goodbye
G A D
Cross our hearts and we hope to die that the other one's to blame
D A
Oh neither one will ever give in so we gaze at an eight by ten
G A D
Thinkin' bout the things that might have been and it's a dirty rotten shame
[Chorus]
D A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee
G A D
I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
D A
People walkin' up to ya singing glory hallelujah
G A D
Then they're tryin' to sock it to you in the name of the Lord
D A
They're gonna teach you how to meditate read your horoscope and cheat your fate
G A D
And furthermore to hell with hate come on and get on board
[Chorus]
D A
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee
G A D
I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
[Verse 4]
D A
Look around and tell me what you see what's happened to you and me
G A D
God grand me the serenity to remember who I am
D A
Cause you've given up your sanity for your pride and your vanity
G A D
Turn your back on humanity and you don't give a lot
[Chorus]

Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee
G A D
I'm talkin' bout you and me and the games people play
