Verse 1
G 
And if you ask me, Carlos,
as you know so much,
why don't you talk to
the people here?
My people is,
D 
Dm 
I speak their voices.
F 
Bb 
But actually, they have no means
to change, no more,
G 
because they are controlled
D 
Dm 
F 
by social changes.
Bb 
Listen up, I told you before,
20 years ago,
G 
Brazil was the country number 40.
Now Brazil is the country number 80.
F#m 
It means that we progressed 32 points.
G 
So, instead of,
why do they give me money
Em 
to buy my food,
G 
F#m 
and why do they raise
my salary
proportionally to 149 reals,
G 
A 
which is nothing?
Dm 
Because if they do so,
F 
Bb 
I can't decide how to spend my money.
G 
If I have to face a long line
D 
in the Federal Bank,
Dm 
with all my documents,
F 
to receive a check that's already
Bb 
under my name,
G 
F#m 
Em 
They are doing you a favor.
F#m 
So these people never open their mouth.
When you see,
G 
protests  in Brazil
have nothing to do with the poor ones.
Poor people, they protest,
D 
F 
they lose the money to buy food.
Bb 
So, no matter what,
G 
nobody want to listen to you, you know?
D 
So, all sides are happy.
F 
Persons are doing very well.
Good sides are happy.
Bb 
Social chances are doing very well.
G 
I'm the only one that suffers.
But I'm still optimistic.
Only education can change it.
Okay? you
