[Verse]
C Em
Well, there's a little boy waiting
F C
at the counter of the corner shop.
Am Em
He's been waiting down there, waiting
F
half the day, they never ever see him
G
from the top.
Am F
He gets pushed around, knocked to the ground.
D F
He gets to his feet and he says
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
F Dm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
F C
but you just take more than you give.
[Verse 2]
C Em F C
Well, there's a pretty girl serving at the counter of the corner shop.
Am Em
She's been waiting back there, waiting for her dreams.
F G
Her dreams walk in and out, they never stop.
Am F
Well, she's not too proud to cry out loud.
D F
She runs to the street and she screams
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
F Dm
I've had enough, now I want my share.
C
Can't you see?
Em
I wanna live,
F C
but you just take more than you give.
[Bridge]
C Em Am G
So take a step back and see the little people.
F D7
They may be young but they're the ones
C Em Am
that make the big people big.
G F
So listen as they whisper,
C
what about me?
Em F C
And now I’m standing on the corner, all the world's gone home.
Am Em
Nobody's changed, nobody's been saved,
F G
and I'm feeling cold and alone.
Am F
I guess I'm lucky, I smile a lot,
D F G
but sometimes I wish for more than I've got.
[Chorus]
C
What about me?
Em
It isn't fair,
F Dm
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,
F Dm
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 -
F C F
you just take more than you give.
C F
What about me?
C F
What about me?
C
What about me?
