Well there's a lit-tle boy wait-ing
-4 4 -4 4 4 -3” 4 -4 5
At the count-er of the corn-er shop
5 6 -6 -6 -6 -6
He's been wait-ing down there
-6 6 6 5 5
Wait-ing half the day
-6 -6 6 6 5 5 -4 5 5 6 -6
They ne-ver e-ver see him from the top
5 6 -6 -6 -6 6
He gets pushed a-round
7 -7 -6 7 -6
Knocked to the ground
-6 -6 -6 -7 -7 -7 7 7
He gets to his feet and he says...
CHORUS:
7 7 -6 -6 6 6 -6 6 6
What a-bout me? It is-n't fair
-6 6 6 6 6 -5 -5 6 -6 6 6
I've had e-nough, now I want my share
7 -7 -7 -6 6 6 -6 6 6 -5 5
Don't you see, I wan-na live
-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -6 6 6 -5
You just take more than you give
VERSE
Well, there's a pretty girl serving
at the counter of the corner shop
She's been waiting back there, waiting for a dream,
Her dreams walk in and out, they never stop
Well, she's not too proud, to cry out loud
She runs to the street and she screams...
CHORUS
-6 -7 7 -8
More than you give...
BRIDGE
5 -6 -6 -6 -6
Well,take a step back
-6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 6
See the lit-tle peop- le
7 7 7 7
They may be young
7 7 7 7
But they're the ones
7 7 7 8 -8 8 -8 7 -6
That make the big peop- le big
7 7 -6 7 7 -7 -6 6
So lis-ten as they whisp- er:
-6 6 6 6 5
"What a-bout me?"
VERSE
And now I'm standing on the corner,
all the world's gone home
Nobody's changed, nobody's been saved
And I'm feeling cold and alone
I guess I'm lucky, I smile a lot
But sometimes I wish for more than I've got...
