[Verse]
Bm D
Seems like everybody's got a problem
Bm
No one knows how
D
But, we all want to solve 'em
Bm
You could give a dime
D
Give a hand
Or give a shit
Bm D
Or could look away and never deal with it
Bm
For example
D
This girl is pretty fly for a white gal
Bm D
All the guys want her even though she's a juvenite
Bm D
She's really kinda sad and just don't care
Bm D
'Cause the only one she wants is her best friend Claire
Bm
What's going on?
D
What's going on?
Bm
Ready or not - NOT
D Bm D Bm
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on
D
Yo, what's going on?
[Pre-Chorus]
C G
There's nothing much to me
D
I'm simple like you are, ordinary
C G
My tired eyes can see
A
That time may fly
And what's left is
Meant to be
[Chorus]
D G
I'm looking out
Bm
You're looking in
G
It's taken more then time
F#m G
To erase the stain
A D
And it's never been the same
[Verse]
Bm
Any city
D Bm
A girl turns 17, goes to a party
D Bm
She and her girls are drinkin barcardi
D Bm
Ever since she walked through the door
D Bm
All the guys have been scoping and flexing tryin' to score
D
But she's a good girl
Bm
So she won't have none of that
D
She takes another sip
Bm D Bm
But has no clue of the spike from the G to the H to the B
D
She wakes up in the morning
Bm
Bruised and raped in the street
Bm
What's going on?

[Verse]
Bm
Your town
D
A kid that you know goes to school
Bm D
He's really kinda shy and not that cool
Bm D
He knows what it's like to look in from the outside
Bm D
Inside, he just wants someone to confide
Bm D
But everyone's busy and no one's got the time
Bm
He takes his dad's gun and says
D
"This is how I'll shine"
Bm
Boom, boom, boom
D
And the kids fall down
Bm
On the ground
D
Dumbfound (dumbfound)
