This can be played right along with the album version, no different tuning or anything.
Intro - Am
All you Amgreat men of power, you who Fboast of your feats -
PoliAmticians and entrepreneurs.F
Can you Amsafeguard your breath in the Fnight while you sleep?
Keep your Amheart beating steady and sFure?
As you Glie in your bed, does the G#dimthought haunt your head
That Amyou’re really, rather D#dimsmall?
If there’Fs one thing I know in thiEms life: we are beggars Amall.
All you Amchampions of science and rFulers of men,
Can you Amsummon the sun from its sFleep?
Does the Amearth seek your counsel on how faFst to spin?
Can you Amshut up the gates of the dFeep?
Don’t yoGu know that all things hang, aG#dims if by a string,
O’er thAme darkness - poised tD#dimo fall?
If there’Fs one thing I know in thiEms life: we are beggars Amall.
All you Ambig shots that swagger and Fstride with conceit,
Did you Amdevise how your frame would be fFormed?
If you’d bAme raised in a palace, oFr live out in the streets,
Did you cAmhoose the place or the hour you’d beF born?
Tell me Gwhat can you claim? Not a thiG#dimng - not your name!
Am Am* D#dim F
Tell me if you can re - call just one thing,
F* F Em
That’s not a gift in this life?
Can you Dmhear what’s been said?
Can you C7Maug5see now that everything’s Amgrace after D#dimall?
If there’s onFe thing I know in thiEms life: we are beggarAms all.
(Am* - accent Am with a finger on 3rd fret on E string)
(F* - Add note with a finger on 3rd fret on E string, technically same as Am* but easier not to change your
whole hand position)
