Good Evening Mr Waldheim

D God evening Mr. Waldheim C#m And Pontiff how are you? Bm You have so much in common A E In the things you do D And here comes Jesse Jackson C#m He talks of common ground Bm Does that common ground include me A E Or is it just a sound? D A sound that shakes A E D A E D Oh Jesse, you must watch the sounds you make D A sound that quakes A E D There are fears that still reverberate D Jesse you say common ground C#m Does that include the P.L.O? Bm What about people right here, right now A E Who fought for you not so long ago? D The words that flow so freely C#m Falling dancing from your lips Bm I hope that you don't cheapen them A E With a racist slip D Oh common ground A E D A E D Is common ground a word or just a sound? D Oh, oh, common ground A E D A E Remember those civil rights workers buried in the ground D If I ran for president C#m And once was a member of the Klan Bm Wouldn't you call me on it A E The way I call you on Farrakhan? D And Pontiff, pretty Pontiff C#m Can anyone shake your hand ? Bm Or is it just that you like uniforms A E And someone kissing your hand? D Or is it true A E D A E D The common ground for me includes you too? D Oh, oh, is it true A E D A E D The common ground for me includes you too? D Good evening Mr. Waldheim C#m Pontiff how are you? Bm As you both stroll through the woods at night A E I'm thinking thoughts of you D And Jesse you're inside my thoughts C#m As the rhythmic words subside Bm My common ground invites you in A E Or do you prefer to wait outside? D Or is it true A E D A E D The common ground for me is without you? D Or is it true A E D A E D The common ground for me is without you? D Oh is it true A E D A E D There's no ground common enough for me and you?
