Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

PLAY 4x's

Joan plays the first G as a Downstroke

the C as an Upstroke and the

final 2 G's as Downstrokes.

NOTE: Throughout the entire song the same

pattern above is played over and over.

Verse

 Sometimes I'm right then I can be wrong

My own beliefs are in my songs

 A butcher, a banker, a drummer and then

 Makes no difference what group I'm in

I-I-I-I am everyday people

 Then it's the blue ones who cant accept

 The green ones for living with

 The black ones tryin to be a skinny one

 Different strokes for different folks

 So on and so on and scooby dooby dooby

 Ooh sha sha

 We gotta live together

Verse

I am no better and neither are you

We are the same whatever we do

You love me you hate me

You know me and then

Still can't figure out the scene I'm in

I am everyday people

Then it's the new man

That doesn't like the short man

For being such a rich one

That will not help the poor one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha

We got to live together

Break

Verse

There is a yellow one

that won't accept the black one

That won't accept the red one

That won't accept the white one

Different strokes for different folks

And so on and so on and

Scooby dooby dooby

Ooh sha sha
