You can [D] play the game and you can [A] act out the part
Though you [Bm] know it wasn’t written for [G] you
But tell me, [D] how can you stand there with your [A] broken heart
[Bm] Ashamed of playing the [G] fool
[D] One thing can lead to [A] an-other; it doesn’t [Bm] take any [G] sac-ri-fice
Oh, [D] father and mother, [A] sis-ter and brother,
[Bm] if it feels nice, [G] don’t think twice

CHORUS: Just [Em7] shower the people you [A] love with love
[Em7] Show them the way that you [A] feel
[Em7} Things are gonna work out [A] fine if you only [Bm] will
PAUSE
[Em7] Shower the people you [A] love with love
[Em7] Show them the way that you [A] feel
[Em7] Things are gonna be much [A] better if you only [Bm] will.

You can run but you cannot hide; D A
this is widely known Bm G
And what you plan to do with your foolish pride D A
when you’re all by yourself alone Bm G
Once you tell somebody the way that you feel D A
you can feel it beginning to ease Bm G
I think it’s true what they say about the squeaky wheel D A
always getting the grease. Bm G

CHORUS….Better to shower….
||: .[Em7] Shower the people you [A] love with love; [Em7] show them the way that you [A] feel |
