How Do I Know

C         G              Am     
How do I know that those 
             Em
mountains aren't cardboard?
F         C              Dm 
How do I know that the world is 
      G
round?
C             G          Am     
Why should I know? Just because 
        Em
you've told me
F       C       Dm         C
Molten rock underneath my ground

[Verse]
C         G             Am       
How do I know there's a God in 
  Em
the sky
F        C        Dm     G
Looking down and hearing me?
C              G             Am 
Why should you say, I can't love
     Em
 any man
F          C           D       G
Have his children and still be free?

[Pre-Chorus]
C               G
Go on voting, striking and fighting
C                G
Go on searching, hiding and laughing

[Chorus]
C        G            Am        Em
I can't change you, can't even try
     C                  Dm      G
But let me live like I think I can
C                             Am 
Then when it's time for me to say
      Em
 goodbye
F         C             G      C
I'll have lived just a part of man

[Pre-Chorus]
C               G
Go on voting, striking and fighting
C                G
Go on searching, hiding and laughing

[Chorus]
C        G            Am        Em
I can't change you, can't even try
     C                  Dm      G
But let me live like I think I can
C                             Am 
Then when it's time for me to 
      Em
simply die
F         C             G      C
I'll have lived just a part of man
