Beautiful song! music, lyrics...everything!
After reading the other tabs on this song I was kind of dissapointed,
I was going to comment with the corrections, but there were more than
I expected, small ones off course, but yet important. I just hope that
the chords are in the right spot! Enjoy!

Bm or Bmsus2
Intro:
Am [-] G [-] G [-] F
Verse:
AmLyin' in the park On a bGeautiful day
Sun sGhine in the grass, and the cFhildren play
SAmiren's passin' FGire engine's red
Someone's hGouse is burning down on a dFay like thi[G]s
Verse:
The eAmvening comes And we're hGangin' out
On the fronGt step And a car goes by with the Fwindows rolled down
And thatAm, war song is playin why can?tG we be friends
Someone iGs screamin' and cryin' in the aFpartment upstairs[G]
CHORUS:
CFunny the way it is And if you thGink about it
SomeBmbody's goin' hungry And someone Felse is eatin' out[G]
CFunny the way it is Whether rGight or wrong
SomebBmody's heart is broken And it becFomes your favorite song [G]
BREAK
Verse:
AmThe way your mouth feels in your lGover's kiss
Like a pretty bGird on a breeze Or wFater to a fish
But a bAmomb blast, brings the building crGashin' to the floor
Hear the lGaughter, while the cFhildren play war[G]
CHORUS:
CFunny the way it is And if you thGink about it
One kid Bmwalks 10 miles to school While anFother's droppin' out [G]
CFunny the way it is No matter rGight or wrong
On a sBmoldier's last breath His Fbaby's being born
BREAK
