[Intro 1]
[B][Em][Am][B][Em][C]
[B][Em][Am][B][Em][C]
[B]

[Verse 1]
Oh this [Em]man
he wakes up in [Am]the morning, don't [C]know where
[B]His eyes do squint, the sun[Em] does glare
Stands up yawns, does [C]stretch his limbs
Turns [B]his face to the sun
and begins [Em]to sing

[Verse 2]
Seen many places,
[Am]done many things
I've been [B]drinking from the earth,
i've see [Em]the world from [Am]within
[Em]Had my share of women and I've
[C]had my share of fights
I've been [B]searching for the moon,

[Verse 3]
i've seen some long long nights
[Em]Shook too many hands and
I [Am]made too many bets
My [B]friends are all gypsies,
and I laughed before [Em]I wept
I learnt how to live when I [C]saw that sunrise
And [B]now I sing this song about

[Verse 4]
looking on my life
[Em]Some say you should try to be [Am]rich man
[B]Some they say you should
be number one
But my [Em]wealth will be in[C]side
And will [B]grow under the [Em]sun[B]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Some say you should try to [Am]be rich man
[B]Some they say you should
[Em]be number [B]one
But my [Em]wealth will be in[C]side
And will [B]grow under the sun

[Verse 6]
After [Em]hearing this [Am]song
I feel some warmth on [C]my face
I [B]look into the sky,
and start to [Em]feel a sense of place
This mans song means [C]something to me
My [B]eyes they do open,
and I [Em]sing this melody

[Verse 7]
[Em]Might write some mystery,
[Am]might read some text
[B]Might create a family,
this [Em]world I might affect
Might be a [C]wise man, might be a fool
Be [B]conquering like a tiger

[Verse 8]
or suffer like a mule
[Em]Might learn too late,
but might [Am]drift in sleep
Might [B]learn how to hide my thoughts
[Em]and promises to keep
All these things my [C]life might see
And [B]now I be singing about how

[Verse 9]
my life might be and
[Em]Some say you should try [Am]to be rich man
[B]Some they say you should be [Em]number one
[B]But my [Em]wealth will be in[C]side
And will [B]grow under the [Em]sun[B]

[Verse 10]
[Em]Some say you should try to [Am]be rich man
[B]Some they say you should be [Em]number one
[B]But my [Em]wealth will be in[C]side
And will [B]grow under the sun

[Verse 13]
how my life might be and
[Em]Some say you should try to [Am]be rich man
[B]Some they say you should
be number one
But my [Em]wealth will be in[C]side
And will [B]grow under the sun
