E                       A
We got to get ourselves together
A                          E
Take some time and talk it over
E                          A
We've got to get ourselves together
E
Take time and understand each other


[Bridge]
E                             F#
The time is come, it's now or never
A                           E
We must not wait until it's gone
F#    A     B     E
Gone, gone, gone, gone


[Verse 1]
E                           A
Lately, it seems like every thing's gone wrong
B                       F#
Misunderstandings about who's right and who's wrong
A                 B
But I don't mind, I know if I can stand it
A                      E
Why don't we work out, people
A
Worked out the way we planned it


[Chorus]
E                          A
We've got to get ourselves together
F#                         E
Take some time and talk it over
E                       A
We got to get ourselves together
B                       E
Try and understand each other


[Bridge]
E                             F#
The time is come, it's now or never
A                           E
We must not wait until it's gone
F#    A     B     E     N.C.
Gone, gone, gone, gone  ooooooooohh....

[Verse 2]
E                                         A
ooooo...So many things we've never talked about
F#                F    E            A
We thought we had everything worked out
B              A
Can one man be right all the time?
E                              A
This world is so confused, how could we be so blind?


[Chorus]
E                          A
We've got to get ourselves together
A                E
Time and talk it over
E                       A
We got to get ourselves together
A                       E
Try and understand each other


[Chorus]
E                       A
We got to get ourselves together
A                          E
Take some time and talk it over
E                       A
We got to get ourselves together, yeah
A                       E
Try and understand each other
