The Man That Is Me

A D A

[Verse 1]
      D
I'm a dreamer by nature
G                        D
And I've always been tryin'
                             E               A
To dream myself out of this world that I'm in
       D                        G          D
In my dreams I escape all the troubles around
        D
And it hasn't cost a penny
          A              D    A7
For the pleasures I've found

[Chorus]
D
What is the part
G
That I'll play today
A                        G           D
Beggar, a bus'ness man, king for a day?
      D
I've played many parts
             G
And I'm the first to agree
          A                                         D A
That I'm still lookin' round for the man that is me

[Verse 2]
       D
I'm a dreamer by nature
G                 D
And I've always been
 D                             A7 A
Looking for something not there
    D
My financial position
G                      D
Don't bother my dreams
           D
'Cause in fairy tale money
        A              D A
I'm my own millionaire

[Chorus]
D
What is the part
G
That I'll play today
A                        G           D
Beggar, a bus'ness man, king for a day?
      D
I've played many parts
             G
And I'm the first to agree
           A                                        D A
That I'm still lookin' round for the man that is me

[Verse 3]
D
I'm a rich man in dreams
       G                D
But in real life I've hid
         D                        E          A
From the fact that I've got me a wife and a kid
     D
If I lose what I've got
G                   D
Then they lose it too
        D                            A           D A
Tell me what in this world's a poor dreamer to do

[Chorus]
D
What is the part
G
That I'll play today
A                        G           D
Beggar, a bus'ness man, king for a day?
      D
I've played many parts
             G
And I'm the first to agree
           A
That I'm still lookin' round for the man that is me
