           G                 Em        C      D  G
           I don't know what anybody's saying anymore

                       Em            A
           Everybody's talking but I heard it all 

             D
           before 

             C              B7           Em
           I seen it on the papers and I watched it on

             Am
           t.v. 

           G         G7    C        Cm     G
           Words are gonna beat the living daylights 

           C      G
           out of me 

           G                       Em
           There's something to be said for having 

           C        D   G
           something to say 

                        Em         A             D
           Each modest opinion and dogma has its day 

                   C             B7        Em
           Bitter, sweet, bad or good, overstated, 

                Am
           understood 

                   G         G7    C        Cm

           G                    Em
           It's not often I get hung up with the 

           C  D       G
           origins of time 

                              Em                A
           Behind each mystic mountain there's another

                  D
           one to climb 

                  C              B7      Em
           No one knows where it ends or where it all

             Am
           begins 

                       G    G7   C    Cm  G     C
           But there's many a solution to wash away

                G
           your sins 
                                       Em
           And there's something to be said for having 

           C        D   G
           something to say 

                        Em         A             D
           Each modest opinion and dogma has its day

                   C             B7        Em 
           Bitter, sweet, bad or good, overstated,

           G                      Em             C
           It looks like it's all down to the survival 

           D      G
           of the strong

                          Em        A
           Nothing is all right and nothing is all 

           D  
           wrong 

             C                B7
           Remember when your dreams go down the 

           Em        Am
           universal drain 

               G      G7      C   Cm       G         
           The best things in life are the things you

           C       G
           can't explain 

           G                           Em
           And there's something to be said for having

           There's something to be said for having 

           G         C  G
           something to say 

           G                       G7    C
           Yeah, there's something to be said for

           Cm     G         C  G
           having something to say
