But, I have to believe in something
 Am
Have to believe in just one thing

There's something missing when I need your rules

Em                        Gmaj7
Well hey there, You tell me you're a holy man
     Cmaj7
But, although I'm just a beginner
 Am
I don't see you as a winner
    D                   G     Bm
I said, Sister Robinson, you're all washed up
F                C     Em
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
D                     G     Bm
If I could tell you what you need to know
F                  C        Em
If I could help you to get on with the show

Reverend Ebenezer, there's a storm in my head
     Bm7/5-     C/G           D13
Makes me hear what you said, just was it true?
 D7     D13
So, what have I to do?

'Cause I feel like I'm tossed in the river
Am
Have you a son to deliver

You tell the children what they need to know
F                     C      Em
But will they listen when it's time to go

  D               G       Bm
Oh, Sister Robinson, you're all wound up
F                C    Em
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
 D               G    Bm
Can someone tell me what I need to know
F              C       Em
Can someone help me to get on with the show
