I used to wonder who was better - those people or Jim
Chorus

'Cause if the world is round and we all breathe air

We all laugh and we all get scared
C G F
We all have our share of good and bad times
C
Yeah we've all got a heart, we've all got a soul

And on the day that we're born we all start to grow old
