-4    -5   -4   -5   -5  6  7  6    7
Some-times I'm right and I can be wrong
-8 -8  -7 -8-7   7  6  7    3
My own be-liefs are in my song
3    -4   -5   3   -4  -5
The butch-er, the bank-er, 
-5    6   7   6   7
the drum-mer and then
-8    -8 -8     -7     7    6    7  7
Makes no dif-f’rence what group I'm in
-1111 10 11 -10* 10 -8  -8
I     am ev-‘ry-day peo-ple

-9    -8 10 -9  -8   9   -9   -9  -8 
There is a blue one who can't ac-cept
10    -9  -8   9  -9  -9   -8
The green one for liv-ing with
10 -9  9   -9    -9 -8 10 -9  -9 -8  
a fat one tryin' to be a skin-ny one

7   -8    -9     -9    -9  10    11    11
And dif-f’rent strokes for dif-f’rent folks
-8  -9 -8 10  -9 -8  9   -9  -9 -9  10 -9  -8
And so on and so on and scoo-by doo-by doo-by
7    7   7
doo sha sha
-8 -7  7   7    6  7  6-567
We got to live to-geth-er

I am no better and neither are you
We're all the same whatever we do
You love me you hate me
You know me and then
Still can't figure out the bag I'm in
I am everyday people

There is a new man
That doesn't like the short man
For being such a rich one
That will not help the poor one
Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha
We got to live together

There is a yellow one that won't 
Accept the black one
That won't accept the red one
That won't accept the white one

Different strokes for different folks
And so on and so on and
Scooby dooby dooby
Ooh sha sha
