(Am  D  Am7  D) (X4)


[Verse 1]


D           Am        D       Am7             D
It ain't no joke, I'd like to buy the world a toke
              Am       D       Am7           D
And teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
              Am       D         Am7           D
And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars
       Am               D             Am7               D
Hey, I know it's just a song but it's spice for the recipe
          Am      D            Am7               D
This is a love attack, I know, went out but it's back
               Am    D       Am7            D
It's just like any fad, it retracts before impact
              Am              D               Am7         D
And just like fashion, it's a passion for the with it and hip
               Am                      D              Am          D
If you got the goods, they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique


[Chorus]


Am            D       Am7               D       Am
  So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out
Am         D            Am7                 D           Am
  Allow if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
Am           D             Am7         D
  And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow
      Am              D           E7                              Am  D  Am7  D
  But if the offer's shunned, you might as well be walkin' on the sun


[Break]
Am D Am7 D


[Verse 2]
            Am      D       Am7                D
Twenty-five years ago, they spoke out and they broke out
     Am             D             Am7         D
Of recession and oppression and together they toked
         Am         D        Am7          D
And they folked out with guitars around a bonfire
     Am          D              Am7           D
Just singin' and clappin', man, what the hell happened?
               Am         D         Am7                   D
Then some were spellbound some were hell-bound, some they fell down
         Am       D      Am7                     D
And some got back up and fought back 'gainst the melt down
          Am               D          Am7   D
And their kids were hippie chicks all hypocrites
        Am         D                 Am7        D
Because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it


[Chorus]

Am            D       Am7               D       Am
  So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out
Am         D            Am7                 D           Am
  Allow if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
Am           D             Am7         D
  And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow
      Am              D           E7                              Am  D  Am7  D
  But if the offer's shunned, you might as well be walkin' on the sun


[Solo]
(Am  D  Am7  D) x4


[Verse 3]
            Am          D              Am7     D
It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked
         Am                D               Am7       D
With her tears because her baby's life has been revoked
            Am          D            Am7          D
The bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the close up
    Am           D          Am7           D
Mr. Wizard can't perform no godlike hocus-pocus
         Am        D              Am7                 D
So don't sit back, kick back, and watch the world get bushwhacked
        Am                D       Am7      D
News at ten, your neighborhood is under attack
             Am               D    Am7        D
Put away the crack before the crack puts you away
            Am                 D           Am7        D
You need to be there when your baby's old enough to relate


[Chorus]
Am            D       Am7               D       Am
  So don't delay, act now, supplies are running out
Am         D            Am7                 D           Am
  Allow if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
Am           D             Am7         D
  And if you follow, there may be a tomorrow
      Am              D           E7                              Am  D
  But if the offer's shunned, you might as well be walkin' on the sun


[Outro]
    Am7              D              Am    D
You might as well be walkin' on the sun
    Am7              D              Am    D
You might as well be walkin' on the sun
    Am7              D              Am    D
You might as well be walkin' on the sun
    Am7              D              Am 
You might as well be walkin' on the sun
