And I want to give him a great big old round of applause.

[Am]
Have [G] you ever feared [F] another day?

Watching [G]

Now won't you, won't [G] you give, won't you [Am] give a man,
[G] give [F] a man a voice?
[C] Have you ever, hey, [Am] once in,
[G] have you ever, never, never [C] [F] known where to [D] begin?
[C] Have you ever lost your [Am] belief?
Watching [G] your faith,
[F] watching your faith [C] turn to greed.
Won't you, won't [G] you give,
[D] won't you [Am] give a man, give a man, [G] give [F] a man.
[C] Won't you, won't you [Gm] give,
[D] [Am] won't you give a man, give a man, [G] give [F] a man.
[C] In a world, in a world that is [Am] unhold,
[G] you have got to fight, got to [F] just to keep your soul.
[C] Some would rather [A] kill before [Am] they believe.
[G] Some would rather [F] give up before they believe.
[C] Won't you, won't you [G] give,
[Em] won't [Am] you give a man, [G] give a [F] man, give a man.
[C] Won't you, won't [G] you give, [E] won't [Am] you give a man, [G] give a [F] man, [Am] give a man.
[C]
[G] Won't you give, won't [Am] you give a man, give [G] a [F]
man,
[C] [F]
give a man. Oh, Lord.
