Verse 1
We Were ETalking One Night 'Bout The G#m7State Of The World  F#m7​
How Some Folks F#m7Move Through It Like SBelf-Centered PEricks
Used To Be You Learned It EEarly, G#m7No Big MysterF#m7y
Just A Little Common EDamn Sense And B  Basic CourteEsy
Like Saying Please And EThank You, It G#m7Ain't Hard To DoF#m7​
A Couple Tiny WorEds, Not A Goddamn BPhd For EYou
Funny How The ESmallest Things CG#m7an Change The DF#m7ay
And How Something So Damn ESimple GoBes Such A LonEg Way

Pre-Chorus
It Ain't CompliF#m7cated
It Doesn't Cost A G#m7Dime
But Somewhere Along The AWay
It Got Hard For Some To ETry
Just A Little KiF#m7ndness
A Little DeceG#m7ncy
A Couple Words Can AStill Remind Us
You Ain't The Only BOne You See

Chorus
Say A Little EThank You,G#m7   Say A Little PF#m7lease
It Ain't Rocket BScience
It's Basic Goddamn DecEency
Say A Little EThank You, Don't Just G#m7Take Your Shit And LF#m7eave
It's A Lost-Ass BArt Now
But It's Not Too Far To ReEach

Post-Chorus
Say A Little F#m7Thank You, Mean The Words You SBay
It Takes So Little F#m7Effort, And It GBoes A Long DamEn Way

Verse 2
You Can EHold A Door Or Look SomeG#m7body In The Eye
F#m7Act Like Other Human Beings Matter Passing By
But Some F#m7People Walk Around Like The World Owes Them Shit
Can't BSpare Two Little Syllables To Keep From Sounding Like A Dick
E  Some Folks Act Like G#m7Manners Are A Bridge Too FF#m7ar
Say A Little F#m7Thank You,  B It Ain't ComplicEated
But Saying Please And EThank You Ain't Some G#m7Grand Master PF#m7lan
It Just Proves You Give A F#m7Damn And UndersBtand Your Fellow MEan

Pre-Chorus
We All Feel The F#m7Difference
When Somebody G#m7Cares
You Can Hear It In The ATone
You Can Feel It In The AiEr
Something So EF#m7asy
It Takes So Little EffortG#m7​
And One Small Bit Of AKindness
Can Change Somebody's BMood

Chorus
Say A Little EThank You,G#m7   Say A Little PF#m7lease
It Ain't Rocket BScience
It's Basic Goddamn DecEency
Say A Little EThank You, Don't Just G#m7Take Your Shit And LF#m7eave
It's A Lost-Ass BArt Now
But It's Not Too Far To ReEach

Post-Chorus
Oh, Say A Little F#m7Thank You, Mean The Words You SBay
It Takes So Little F#m7Effort, And It GBoes A Long DamEn Way

Bridge
It Still EMatters
It Still G#m7Should
A Little Bit Of F#m7Kindness
Still Does A BBody Good
A Little ERespect
A Little G#m7Care
Might Be F#m7Rare These Days
But We Can BPut It Back Out There

Chorus
Say A Little EThank You,G#m7   Say A Little PF#m7lease
It Ain't Old-BFashioned
It's How The Hell It Oughta BEe
Say A Little EThank You, When G#m7Somebody Shows UF#m7p
This Hard-Ass World Could BUse
A Little More Of That EStuff

Post-Chorus
Say A Little F#m7Thank You, And Now You Know WhyG#m7 It Still Matters, It Still Should
F#m7  To Make SBomebody Feel All REight
