4 Non Blondes-What's Up - BPM - 109

[Intro]
[E]  [F#m]  [A]  [E]
first note of melody is G# of the E chord (first fret on G string)

[Verse 1]
[E]   Twenty-five years and my life is still
[F#m] Trying to get up that great big hill
Of  [A] hope for a desti [E] nation
I  [E] realized quickly when I knew I should
That the  [F#m] world was made up of this brotherhood
Of  [A] man, for whatever that  [E] means
 
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I  [E] cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to  [F#m] get it all out, what's in my head
and I  [A] - I am feeling a little pe [E] culiar
And so I  [E] wake in the morning and I step outside
and I  [F#m] take a deep breath and I get real high and
I  [A] scream from the top of my lungs "What's going  [E] on?"
 
[Chorus]
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
 
[Interlude]
[E]  Ooh, O [F#m] oh O [A] oh   [E] 
[E]  Ooh, O [F#m] oh O [A] oh   [E] 
 
[Verse 2]
And I  [E] try, oh my God, do I  [F#m] try
I try all the  [A] time, in this insti [E] tution
And I  [E] pray, oh my God, do I  [F#m] pray
I pray every single  [A] day
For a revo [E] lution
 
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I  [E] cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to  [F#m] get it all out, what's in my head
and I  [A] - I am feeling a little pe [E] culiar
And so I  [E] wake in the morning and I step outside
and I  [F#m] take a deep breath and I get real high and
I  [A] scream from the top of my lungs "What's going  [E] on?"
 
[Chorus]
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
 
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey  [F#m] HeyeYEYEYE"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going  [E] on?"
 
[Interlude]
[E]  Ooh, O [F#m] oh O [A] oh . [E] ....
 
[Outro]
[E]   Twenty-five years and my life is still
[F#m] Trying to get up that great big hill of  [A] hope
For a destin [E] ation

[End]
