Biografía:
The Boomers is a Canadian rock band from Ontario who were active from 1991–2002 (the band is also known as The Boomers YYZ). Although their first album What We Do (released in 1991) was not initially a commercial success in Canada, it became a cult hit in Germany, leading to a tour in 1991. This success prompted the band to record The Art of Living; the single "You Gotta Know" was a hit in Canada.
The Boomers involves four musicians whose careers have intersected over a number of years.

|E Esus4 |E E7 |
Verse#1
E
You've got your share of problems
A kind of self inflicted hell
A7sus4
Well you come with so much baggage
E
I feel like a porter in your hotel
Verse#2
E
Well it could have been your childhood
Or some hope you couldn't live up to
A7sus4
Or maybe it's the stars or the moon in your sign
E
Or maybe it's just you
Chorus
E
You gotta know this isn't working
C A
(You gotta know this isn't working)
E
You gotta know I can't relax
C A
(You gotta know I can't relax)
G
You gotta know I need some distance
D C
(You gotta know I need some distance)
E
I want you off of my back
C A
(I want you off of my back)
D C
Uh, you gotta know, you gotta know,

verse#3
E
Well you're into self improvement
And there's so much to be gained
A7sus4
But you don't apply a single thing you learn
E
And then you wonder why you're still the same
verse#4
E
And you don't have a clue what you sound like
Or how many people you hurt
A7sus4
You say you don't intend the messages you send
E
When you treat somebody like dirt
Chorus

You gotta know this isn't working

E
I want you off of my back
C A
(I want you off of my back)
E
So I've gotta tell you this ain't working
C A
(I've gotta tell you this ain't working)
E
In case you misunderstood
C A
(In case you misunderstood)
G
You'll be waving I'll be walking
D C
(You'll be waving I'll be walking)
E
My life should be so good
C A
(My life should be so good)
D C
Uh, you gotta know, you gotta know,
