[C9]
Verse 1
[Eb]All the [Cm][Gm/B]world's a [Abmaj7]stage
A [Fm7]friend of [Eb]mine, he sometimes [Adim7]said
But though he [Fm7]tried to show the [Gm]way
They only [G7]care about his [Cadd9]name[C]
Verse 2
[Eb]Love is [Cm]for[Gm/B] the [Abmaj7] fool
A [Fm7]blind old [Eb]man, he always [Adim7]said
But of its [Fm7]joys he sometimes [Gm]spoke
And then it [G7]seemed, he could [Cadd9]see[C]
Verse 3
[Eb]Life is [Cm]for[Gm/B] the [Abmaj7]strong,
A [Fm7]travelling [Eb]monk, he told me [Cm]once
But of the [Fm7]weak, he never [Gm]spoke[Cm]
[Cm]Though their [G7]cries beat on his [Cadd9]ears[C]
Verse 4
I [Eb]stood, my [Cm]gun[Gm/B] in [Abmaj7]hand
The [Fm7]swallow [Eb]flew to meet his [Adim7]love
And as they [Fm7]touched, I shot him [Gm]down
But now it's [G7]me that can't [Cadd9]fly[C]
