[E] I am a [A] simple man,
[E] I have seen [B] kingdoms span,
[E] I have seen [A] empires rise and fall and [E] turn
my diamonds all [B] into sand.
[E] I scorned the [A] body, the flesh, the bloody and [E] tossed my money on [B] down the drain.
[E] I thought I'd feel so [A] much lighter than air [E] when I abolished my earthly [B] chains.
[A] But something [B] more is calling me [E] and I think [B] my [A] eyes can see it, I think my [B] hands can touch it.
So [E] asking you, [A] Lord above,
[E] as you piled the [B] plates up,
[E] you gave them bread, [A] you gave them
water, [E] then you told them what they could and [B] they couldn't touch.
[E] I scorned desire, [A] but now the fire is [E] growing higher into [B] the sky.
So [E] I refuse to simply lock [A] myself away and [E] let this heaven on earth [B] pass by.
[A] There's no glory [B] in greed and want, [E] but there's none [B] in [A] poverty either.
Like they give you salvation, [B] damnation, [F] and [E] I take neither.

I [A] once said it's not [B] about riches or rags [E] and now [B] I do [A] remember that these puddles of
wax won't [B] give me candles back [E] and won't keep you [B] warm in [A] December.
So we'll storm the castle, declare [B] the kingdom rich, [E] and do away [B] with slaves and [A] masters.
No longer do we want the sleep [B] of eternity to come [E] around faster, faster, faster, faster.
