Bm
Here we come
                     E
Through the market square

Aristotle and Socrates

[Verse 1]
  D              G
People found me irritating
  D             C
Thanks to my interrogating
 D                  G               A
Like a toddler, was always asking "Why?"
 D               G
What is wisdom, what is beauty
 D               C
What is nature, what is duty
       D             G
Taught everything I know to
           A
This next guy

What we seek

[Verse 2]
D            G
My name is Diogenes
     D               C
I’m not one to say thanks or please
        D                 G
Poked statues and walked barefoot
        A
In the snow
 D             G
Never believed in possessions
  D                    C
Thought they gave the wrong impression
     D               G
Put faith in total freedom
           A
Don’t you know

   Bm
I studied at Plato’s academy
        E
Taught Alex the Great, I know everything me
    G
Intriged by the world

Brainiest guys

[Bridge]
    G
Not everyone likes smarties though
 Gm
Even Socrates had his foe
       D
When tried for treason
                 B
He simply said “Why?”
      G
They sentenced him to drink hemlock
    Gm
He said “You know if I take stock
  A
I am annoying, I’ll take that
N.C.
And die”
