[Verse]
CEm
Well, there's a little boy waiting
FC
at the counter of the corner shop.
AmEm
He's been waiting down there, waiting
F
half the day, they never ever see him
G
from the top.
AmF
He gets pushed around, knocked to the ground.
DF
He gets to his feet and he says
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
FDm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
FC
but you just take more than you give.
[Verse 2]
CEmFC
Well, there's a pretty girl serving at the counter of the corner shop.
AmEm
She's been waiting back there, waiting for her dreams.
FG
Her dreams walk in and out, they never stop.
AmF
Well, she's not too proud to cry out loud.
DF
She runs to the street and she screams
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
FDm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
FC
but you just take more than you give.
[Bridge]
CEmAmG
So take a step back and see the little people.
FD7
They may be young but they're the ones
CEmAm
that make the big people big.
GF
So listen as they whisper,
C
what about me?
EmFC
And now I’m standing on the corner, all the world's gone home.
AmEm
Nobody's changed, nobody's been saved,
FG
and I'm feeling cold and alone.
AmF
I guess I'm lucky, I smile a lot,
DFG
but sometimes I wish for more than I've got.
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
FDm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
F
but you just take more -
C
what about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
FDm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
F
but you just take more than -
D
you just take more than -
FCF
you just take more than you give.
CF
What about me?
CF
What about me?
C
What about me?
