Another Saturday Night - Cat Stevens
Chorus:
F Bb
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody,
F C
I've got some money cause I just got paid,
F Bb
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to,
F C
I'm in an awful way!
C
I got in town a month ago,
F F7 Bb
I've seen a lot of girls since then,
F F7
If I could meet `em I could get `em,
Bb
But as yet I haven't met `em,
F C
That's how I'm in the state I'm in...
CHORUS
Another fella told me,
He had a sister who looked just fine,
Instead of being my deliverance,
She had a strange resemblance,
To a cat named Frankenstein...
CHORUS
It's hard on a fella,
When he don't know his way around!
If I don't find me a honey,
To help me spend my money,
I'm gonna have to blow this town!"
G D G G

Chorus....ooh,I'm in an awful way,he's in an awful way

Thinkin about my friend and the last woman to kiss me.
But sometimes you have to moan when nothin' seems to suit ya
But nevertheless you know your locked towards the future Ooh Ooh Ooh

Where Do The Children Play?
D G D G D G D G C Em C Em A D G D G
D G D G
Well I think it's fine, building jumbo planes
D G D G
Or taking a ride on a cosmic train
D G D G
Switch on summer from a slot machine
D G D G
Yes, get what you want to if you want 'cos you can get anything
Em A Em A
I know we've come a long way, we're changing day to day
Em A D G D G D G D G
But tell me, where do the children play?
Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass
For your lorryloads pumping petrol gas
And you make them long, and you make them tough
C G C G
But they just go on and on, and it seems you can't get off
Oh, I know we've come a long way
We're changing day to day
But tell me, where do the children play?
C Em C Em A D G D G D G D G
When you crack the sky, scrapers fill the air
Will you keep on building higher
'til there's no more room up there?
C G C G
Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry?
C G C G
Will you tell us when to live, will you tell us when to die?
Em7 A
I know we've come a long way
Em7 A
We're changing day to day--hey
Em A D G D G
But tell me, where do the children play?

Do de do doot do do de do do
