Misery fell on the town when they all lost their looks
Fm G# C# G#
They spent all those years with their jobs and their scholarly books
Bbm Ab F# F Bbm Eb
With no one to share all their thoughts and their worldly to be's, oh noo
Fm G# C# G#
They got down and prayed a little more for a life that was free
Fm G# C# G#
Altered and changed they insist how reform comes along

A wise men suggested they work in their smiles, not their love

Why oh why this
G# C# G# C#
Town without love, too much faith in above
E Eb
Can you see? Can you feel the

Force that it brings, not to worry ‘bout things

Just the stars in the sky, all the joy in their time
E Eb Fm
With a hope forrrrr peace

Over melodica instrumental

First thing they do is to substitute pleasure for pain
Fm G# C# G#
Helping themselves figure out there's so much they can gain
Bbm Ab F# F Bbm Eb
But that can't surrender their chemistry books if they fell, oh well
Fm G#
They frolic and take in the love that persistently waits
C# Bb Eb
La la la la la, la la la la la la la,
