The Temptations Chords & Lyrics - The Lads (new Zealand)

[VERSE 1]
[E]Standing in line at Burger King
[E]My hunger's growing and my [C]stomach's rumbli[D]ng
[E]The queue's as long as you can see
[E]This big guy pushes in
Then tur[C]ns and laughs at [D]me
[E]My temperature rises as I [F#/E]clench my fist
I can fee[E]l my knickers as they're [F#/E]starting to twist
[G]My brain is scheming [A7/G]revenge somehow
[G]Should I smash his [A7/G]head in now

[CHORUS]
[A]I'm not [F#m]gonna [G]throw it all [Dm]away to please t[A]oday
Cos I've[F#m] seen yo[G]ur schemes bef[Dm]ore
[A]But I ch[F#m]oose to w[G]alk along the p[Dm]athway that I know
[A]Will lead[F#m] me to [G]my goal

[VERSE 2]
[E]It's getting late the party's through
[E]We've had a good time now
It's [C]time to say too-r[D]oo
[E]My best friend's left to catch some zzz's
[E]His girlfriend stayed and now she's
[C]Making eyes at [D]me
[E]I suddenly realise that w[F#m]e're all alone
[E]My mind is saying that I [F#m]should go home
[G]She slides in closer on the [A7/G]big settee
[G]Is this really where I [A7/G]want to be

[BRIDGE]
[E] [D] [C#] [C](It's passing [D]like the [E]wind)
[E]You say to me, I [D]live for the [C#]moment[C] [D]
[E]You say take [D]all you can [C#]today [C] [D]
[E]I don't want to [D]live just for the [C#]moment [C] [D]
[E]There is a [D]better [C#]way [C] [D]
[G]And every [Gaug/F]day we see this [Em]generation
[Eb]Throw their [F]lives aw[G]ay
It's like we [Gaug/F]bow down to [Em]temptation
And [Eb]let it [F]have it's [G]way
[G]Where are our d[Gaug/F]reams and where is [Em]God
Can [Eb]any[F]body [G]see
[G]I'm not a[Gaug/F]shamed to say
I [Em]chase the plans He [Eb]has for [F]me
