[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 1]
So [C]now I am [G]old[C]er
[Em]Than my mother and fathe[F]r
[Em]When they had thei[Dm]r daughter
Now [G]what does that [F]say about [G]me?
Oh, [C]how could I [G]dream [C]of
[Em]Such a selfless and [F]true love
[Em]Could I wash my ha[Dm]nds of
[G]Just looking [F]out for [G]me

[Chorus 1]
Oh [F]man, what I [C]used to [Dm]be
Oh [G]man, [C]oh [Dm]my, oh [G]me
Oh [F]man, what I [C]used to [Dm]be
Oh [G]man, [C]oh [Dm]my, oh [G]me

[Verse 2]
In [C]dearth or in [G]ex [C]cess
[Em]Both the slave and t[F]he empress
[Em]Will return to the dirt,[Dm] I guess
[G]Naked [F]as when they [G]came
I [C]wonder if [G]I'll [C]see
[Em]Any faces [F]above me
[Em]Or just cracks in th[Dm]e ceiling
[G]Nobody [F]else to [G]blame

[Chorus 2]
Oh [F]man, what I [C]used to [Dm]be
Oh [G]man, [C]oh [Dm]my, oh [G]me
Oh [F]man, what I [C]used to [Dm]be
Oh [G]man, [C]oh [Dm]my, oh [G]me

[Verse 3]
Gold [C]teeth and gold [G]jewel[C]ry
[Em]Every piece of your [F]dowry
[Em]Throw them into the tomb[Dm] with me
[G]Bury them [F]with my [G]name
Un[C]less I have [G]some[C]day
[Em]Ran my wandering m[F]ind away[Em][Dm]
[G]Oh[F][G]

Oh [F]man, what I [C]used to [Dm]be
Monte[F]zuma [C]to Tripo[Dm]li
Oh [G]man, [C]oh [Dm]my, oh [G]me
