Verse 1
normal people
that you know they're doing well
G
Gm
And they'll be out there eating breakfast
at the Anilver Court Hotel
G
D
Gm
And they'll be off
G
and down the highway
Gm
in their this year's Chevrolet
And they're just three
hours north of Gubbord
C
On their weekend holiday little getaway
D
Gm
G
For the only normal people
Gm
The only normal people
that tell you everything's alright
They say the sun comes up each morning
And the stars come out at night
G
D
G
And they say,
Gm
Kellogg's still makes cornflakes
G
And that classic Coke is back
Gm
And you know Reagan's
in the White House
G
And his hair's a natural black
C
It's a natural fact
D
Gm
G
Says the only normal people
Gm
The only normal people
That drink their coffee
G
sweet with cream
Gm
That's as they gaze out
from their easy chair
They call it TV screens
And as they watch a world of problems
On their cable evening news
D
Gm
You know they wonder
why those people
D
G
Gm
Choose to live the way they do
C
Don't they want to do
D
Gm
G
Like the only normal people
Gm
The only normal people
D
G
Gm
Do exactly as they should
G
Gm
You know they
never borrow money
and their credit's always good
D
Gm
You know they file
their honest tax return
G
Gm
a month before it's due
And wave to all those nice policemen
up on Grandview
G
Haven't you?
Gm
C
How'd it do to you?
D
G
They say they are the only normal people
Gm
The only normal people
who never see cocaine or smack
You know they don't smoke marijuana
G
and they're miles away from crack
Gm
And all those pills that
doctor give them help
G
a sinus headache some
D
You know they'll drink
Gm
because it's social
G
but they won't have more than one
Gm
C
I'm sorry I gotta run
D
Dm
D
Settle at home
G
Home to the normal people
Gm
They go to church on Sunday
G
D
With their happy healthy son
G
Gm
Who's going to run
G
their family business
Gm
G
Just as they themselves have done
Gm
G
And he will live to own a golf cart
Gm
G
And a backyard swimming pool
Gm
And he won't never sleep with boys
G
So I think of dropping out of school,
Gm
C
it wasn't set to go
D
G
With us all, only normal people
Gm
Yeah, the only normal people
don't know anything about
G
Gm
Your world of sleepless
nights and pressures,
and they never once freak out
You know they run their lives on course,
G
and they keep a steady even keel
Gm
G
They hear you talk about frustration
But they don't know how it feels
C
No, it isn't real
D
Dm
For those uh -uh -uh -huh
D
G
-hum normal people
D
Gm
They eat their three square
G
Gm
meals a day
G
And they do their exercise and diet
Gm
And always look before they leap
And they keep their
G
seatbelts buckled tight
D
Gm
And so they don't get into accidents
And they'll wind up on their backs
D
Gm
G
They also don't get AIDS or cancer
And they don't have heart attacks
C
Can't you just relax?
D
Gm
G
Like the only normal people
I'll bet they're down at J .C. Penney's
Gm
For that riding lawn mower
G
Gm
Now, you know that one
G
that takes attachments
Gm
Like that tin blade garden plow
G
Gm
I'll bet you'll pass
them down this morning
G
as you race to beat the bell
Gm
They are the only normal people
G
They're the ones you don't know well,
Gm
C
that you don't know well
D
G
They're the only normal people
Gm
G
C
That you don't know well
D
They're the holy,
Dm
G
holy normal people
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
C
that you don't know well
D
They're the holy,
G
D
G
G
holy normal people
You
The Only Normal People
