Emaj7 C#m7
Mother, mother There's too many of you crying

Emaj7 C#m7
Father, father We don't need to escalate
Emaj7 C#m7
You see, war is not the answer For only love can conquer hate
F#m7
You know we've got to find a way
A/B B13
To bring some lovin' here today

F#m7 B/A
Picket lines and picket signs
F#m7 B/A
Don't punish me with brutality
F#m7 B/A
Talk to me, so you can see

Emaj7
Oh, what's going on What's going on
C#m7
Ya, what's going on Ah, what's going on

Am7 and Bm7 through the "humming" part

Emaj7 C#m7
Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
Emaj7 C#m7
Oh, but who are they to judge us Simply because our hair is long
F#m7
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
B/A
To bring some understanding here today

B13
Oh

F#m7 B/A
Picket lines and picket signs
F#m7 B/A
Don't punish me with brutality
F#m7 B/A
Talk to me, so you can see Oh!
Emaj7
What's going on Ya, what's going on
C#m7
Tell me what's going on
Emaj7
I'll tell you what's going on - Uh

And then just continue with Am7 sliding to Bm7 and to the F#m7 chord when the "jamming"
part modulates
