Intro: |G  Em  |C D   |  (2x)

G              Em            C            D7
Fortune has me well in hand, armies await my command
   Am7            D7           C               G        Em   G  D
My gold lies in a foreign land, buried deep beneath the sand
G               Em          C               D7
Angels guide my every tread, my enemies are sick or dead
    Am7          D7           C                    G     Em  G  D
But all the victories I've led haven't brought you to my bed

G         Em             C                       D7
Everybody loves me, baby, what's the matter with you?
          Am7                D7       G     C  G  D
Won't you tell me what did I do to offend you?
G         Em             C                       D7
Everybody loves me, baby, what's the matter with you?
          Am7                D7       G     C  G
Won't you tell me what did I do to offend you?

    G                Em                C             D7
The purest race I've bred for thee, to live in my democracy
    Am7           D7        C                     G      Em  G  D
The highest human pedigree awaits your first-born boy, baby
   G              Em           C                    D7
My face on every coin engraved, the anarchists are all enslaved
   Am7            D7            C               G      Em   G  D
My own flag is forever waved by grateful people I have saved


Refrain

G            Em                 C                     D7
No land is beyond my claim when land is seized in the people's name
   Am7          D7           C                  G        Em   G  D
By evil men who rob and maim, if war is hell, I'm not to blame
        G                   Em                      C             D7
Why you can't blame me, I'm heaven's child, I'm the second son of Mary mild
    Am7               D7                C                G      Em    G  D
I'm twice removed from Oscar Wilde, and he didn't mind, he just smiled


Refrain

G                    Em              C                    D7
The ocean parts when I walk through, clouds dissolve, the sky turns blue
    Am7          D7             C          G        Em  G  D
I'm held in very great value by everyone I meet but you
G                    Em               C                   D7
I've used my talents as I could, I've done some bad, I've done some good
        Am7                        D7
I did a whole lot better than they thought I would, so
C                      G       Em     G  D
 Come on and treat me like you should!
