Intro: C  Em  Dm  F  (2x) 
  
C                       Em 
Tables were turning and papers were burning 
    D               F 
The undisputed were doomed 
     C                     Em 
When music was victimized, innocence scandalized 
D                        F 
Star-people left for the moon 
                    C 
And no one was the wiser 
Am            G 
No one ever knew, ooh 
    C               G 
And no one knew but me (and the chosen) 
C               G 
No one knew but me (and the chosen) 
C      F        G                 C  G 
No one knew but me and the chosen few 
               C  G 
And the chosen few 
               C 
And the chosen few 
  
  
                              Em 
When she and the old man were splitting again 
        D                      F 
And the planet was right for a change 
     C                      Em 
When Africa called and they stalled America 
D                  F 
Never to hear her again 
                     C 
I'm always so amazed that 
Am            G 
No one ever knew 
    C               G 
And no one knew but me (and the chosen) 
    C               G 
And no one knew but me (and the chosen) 
C      F        G                 C  G 
No one knew but me and the chosen few 
               C  G 
And the chosen few 
               C 
And the chosen few 
  
  
INTERLUDE: 
        F       G       C            Am          C 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
        F       G       C            Am          G 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
        F       G       C            Am          C 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
        F       G       C            Am          G 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
  
  
      C                      Em 
So we live and change and we come back again 
        D                                F 
And our brothers scream, 'Where have you been?' 
        C                        Em 
As they lay waste the planet and torture the dreamer 
    D                       F 
The picture's looking quite dim 
                         C 
Won't someone change the channel 
      Am                G 
Can't stand the evening news 
    C               G 
And no one knew but me 
    C               G 
And no one knew but me 
C               G 
No one knew but me and the chosen 
C               G 
No one knew but me and the chosen 
C               G 
No one knew but me and the chosen 
C      F        G                 C  G 
No one knew but me and the chosen few 
               C  G 
And the chosen few 
               C   
And the chosen few
