       G
Reformulation, rearrange the
                 D
     game you're in
                        Em
Let us start from the begin
                       B
With confidence you'll win
That's the reason you
          F#   D
     were born
             G
'Cause Jesus Christ, man, won't
     be coming
        D
Back no more
                     Em
He set up his proper laws
                          B
And you know well that he did
     just what
               F#   D
He should have done
         G
As I was growing and my hair was
             D
     getting longer
                       Em
I was feeling so much stronger
                    B
I could carry my guitar, and I knew
             F#     D
That I could sing!!
    G    C            G
But hey, how could I know?
C                G           D
The wind would blow with the rain
 G    C          G
Hey, how could I see
 C              G
What would they make
            D   D7
     out of me?
            G
When I was little, used to dream I
             D
       was a king
                          Em
Now they taught me how to sing
                          B
Think I've got most everything
                 F#  D
I could ever ask for
                G
You've got your pencil, your guitar,
          D
Your amplifier
                        Em
Searching for the lousy liars
                           B
You will set this world on fire
                 F#      D
Like Nero did to Rome!! Yeah!
    G     C           G
But hey, how could I know
C             G          D
My eyes could see in the dark?
 G   C              G
Hey, don't press on me
 C         G                D   D7
I'm not to blame can't you see?
             G
It's been so long now
                           D
Since the latest "red" has gone
                        Em
Who knows you'll be the next
                    B
To go down in history...
