Queen + Paul Rodgers - Say It's Not True (Live) chords
Start Jamming...
Hi everybody.
I think we're going to have a great night tonight.
So I've just come out here to bring you down.
This is actually a song written for Nelson Mandela.
It's about something that does affect everybody.
You, me, us, everybody.
That is HIV AIDS virus.
This is called Say It's Not [C] True.
The [F] harder [C] we play, the faster [F] we fall.
When we think [Am] that we know it all, we know nothing [G] at all.
[C] The letter arrives, like a ball [F] from the blue.
So what's left [Am] of your lives, all your [G] dreams lost to you.
Say [F] it's not true, say [C] it today.
When I open [Am] my eyes, will it all [G] go away?
Say it's [F] not true, [C] say it for real.
Can't be [Dm] happening to you, [F] can't be [C] happening to me.
It's hard not to cry, it's hard to [F] believe.
So much heartache and pain, [Am] so much reason [G] to grieve.
With the wonders [C] of science and all the knowledge [F] we've stored.
Magic [Am] cocktails for lives, people just [G] can't afford.
So [F] say it's not true, you can [C] say it's not right.
It's hard [Am] to believe the size [G] of the crime.
[F] Say it's not true, you can say [C] it's not real.
[Am] Can't be [Dm] happening to you, [Fm] can't be happening to [C] me.

[N] [Bm]
[G] [E]
[C] [B]
[F#] [B] From Brooklyn, USA, Danny [N] Miranda.
From Chicago, USA, Jamie Moses.
Up here, we've got a man on the keyboards, the wizard, Spike Edmonds.
And over here is my best friend, Brian May.

[N]
Okay, you don't expect comedy from me, do you?
You won't get it.
Okay, um, you know what, I have to say something.
I get a very strange feeling about time, coming out here and sitting amongst all of you here.
It's a very privileged position to be sitting where I am.
I can hardly believe it, it's like you have to keep pinching yourself.
It was almost 19 years ago when Queen last toured the boards up here [B] in Sheffield.
And in some ways it seems like [N] yesterday.
In some ways it's a very long time.
And I look around and I see a lot of wonderful, friendly faces.
Thank you all for being here.
And the amazing thing is, the amazing thing is, some of you I do know.
And some of you guys I look and you kind of look familiar, but actually, you know, you were probably not, or even just born when this last happened.
Welcome to you all, we love you.
[G]
[N] Which brings me to the theme of this song, which I'd like to sing for you.
And I'd like you to sing with
