Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]Like[F][Am][F]
[Am]David with his sling,
so [F]I will with my drill
[Am]Transform this solid stone by just
my [F]hammer and my will
Find the [Am]figure trapped in earth under
the [F]stigma and the settlement
[Bb]I'll prove [Gm]there's po[Bb]etry
[Gm]within[Am][F]
Beneath my [Am]father in the
Bible, and [F]my mind was built for battle
With [Am]my mother's milk of marble,
feel it boil[F]ing in my blood
I see
[Am]Madonna on the stairs,
the way [F]she struggles with her destiny
[Bb]I'll hide [Gm]in c[Bb]arvings
[Gm]on my wa[Am]ll
Without [Em]pride, cast aside,
I can truly [Adim]say I've tried
To [F]convey [G]what I [F]have studied,
[C]bring the truth I've seen to light
[Em]For the beauty of the body I
am [F]broken [Adim]and I'm bound
I [Bb]am b[Dm]urned and I am[G] blinded
By [C]the candles in my [Am]crown
But [A]oh, [Em]some[A]day[Em]
[Am]they'll [F]know
Michelan[Am]gelo[F][Dm][F][Am]
[Dm]Michelangelo
[Bdim]There's [F]divinity[Am] in science
Our [F]skeletons are sacred
Set [Am]afire to my
Florence
You can [F]burn but can't erase it
In [Am]the folds of
Mary's robe and in her hands
[F]My heart is aching
[Bb]I'll carve [Gm]my na[Bb]me into th[Gm]e cl[Am]oth
[Em]With all pride cast aside
I can truly [Adim]say I've tried
To [F]convey what I have studied
[C]Bring the truth I've seen to life
[Em]For the beauty of the body
I am [B]broken [Adim]and I'm bound
[F]I am burdened,
I am [C]blinded by the candles in my crown
But [A]oh, [Em]some[A]day[Am]
[Em]they'll [Am]know[A][F]
[Am]Michelan[F]gelo[Am]
Michelangelo
[F][Bb][A][G#]
[Am]With my eyes turned out towards heaven,
[F]see the prophets and the
Saviour
Yet [Am]this chapel ceiling stands
between my[F]self and my
Creator
Return [Am]me to the earth from which I came
[F]Let me dissolve into sto[Bb]ne
Let me dissolve into [Gm]stone
[Bb]Let me dissolve into[Gm] stone[Bb]
[Gm][Bb][Gm]
[C]Someday [Am]they'll [A]know
Like [F]a legend
[Am]
