If I listened to you and you listened to me

CHORUS
G
If I did all the things that you tell me
C
And you did all things that I tell you
G                                                D
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

G
If I listened to you
C
And you listened to me
G                                      D
Imagine how happy we'd be

VERSE
G
Cause you tell me truths
C
I don't like to hear
G
Truth is painful
D
You know you can lie sometimes

Then I'd listen more
To the wise words you've said like
Like, like... errrr

CHORUS
If I did all the things that you tell me
C
And you did all things that I tell you
G                                                D
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

G
If I listened to you
C
And you listened to me
G                                      D
Imagine how happy we'd be

VERSE
We'd be healthier, happier, fitter and wiser
Richer and thinner and younger and more organised
The world would be a better place
Without war 

It's a simple thing but hard to do
With ego involved it's  a blinkered view
But if you saw yourself from outside, you'd say
"Why didn't you tell me!?"

MIDDLE
C
The world's a crazy mixed-up place
F
Because of the stupid human race
Am
Our thoughts pollute the very
G
Air we breathe

If we're going to be the ones to make the change
It's our thoughts we need to contain
And switch our brains from broadcast
To receive

And if I lived for you
And you lived for me
Imagine how happy we'd be

CHORUS
C                      
If I did all the things that you tell me
F
And you did all things that I tell you
C                                                   G
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

If I listened to you
And you listened to me
Imagine how happy we'd be

OUTRO
If you listened to me
I listened to you
We listened ro each other
Listening to you

Did you hear what I've been saying?
Has any of this registered?
You're looking at your telephone
I don't know what to say
I've done all I can


LYRICS

If I did all the things that you tell me
And you did all things that I tell you
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

If I listened to you
And you listened to me
Imagine how happy we'd be

Cause you tell me truths
I don't like to hear
Truth is painful
You know you can lie sometimes

Then I'd listen more
To the wise words you've said like
Like, like... errrr

If I did all the things that you tell me
And you did all things that I tell you
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

If I listened to you
And you listened to me
Imagine how happy we'd be

We'd be healthier, happier, fitter and wiser
Richer and thinner and younger and more organised
The world would be a better place
Without war 

It's a simple thing but hard to do
With ego involved it's  a blinkered view
But if you saw yourself from outside, you'd say
"Why didn't you tell me!?"

The world's a crazy mixed-up place
Because of the stupid human race
Our thoughts pollute the very
Air we breathe

If we're going to be the ones to make the change
It's our thoughts we need to contain
And switch our brains from broadcast
To receive

And if I lived for you
And you lived for me
Imagine how happy we'd be
                 
If I did all the things that you tell me
And you did all things that I tell you
There's nothing that we couldn't do 

If I listened to you
And you listened to me
Imagine how happy we'd be

If you listened to me
I listened to you
We listened ro each other
Listening to you

Did you hear what I've been saying?
Has any of this registered?
You're looking at your telephone
I don't know what to say
I've done all I can
