Verse 1:
    E MajorE        D/ED/E
Did you see the first man on the moon?
     A/EA/E          E MajorE
Have you seen the first light of day?
     F# minorF#m       E/G#
When there wasn't someone stuck inside
G+G
Something like the moon
D/F#D/F#             E MajorE  D/ED/E  E MajorE
Something like a star that's lost its way

Verse 2:
    E MajorE      D/ED/E
Did you go to Dallas on that day?
    A/EA/E             E MajorE
Have you been to where they broke a dream?
      F# minorF#m      E/G#
Where there really isn't room for doubt?
G+G
Somehow we got lost
    D/F#D/F#            E MajorE   D/ED/E  E MajorE
And the truth is buried somewhere in between


Chorus:
  A augmentedA     D MajorD
And everyone, everywhere
  G+G          A augmentedA
Take time and dry your eyes
    C# minorC#m       F# minorF#m
Because too many tears, too many tears
     E MajorE D/ED/E E MajorE
Have been cried
   A augmentedA       D MajorD
Just look into that beautiful blue
G+G             A augmentedA
That beautiful blue, blue sky
  C# minorC#m      F# minorF#m       E MajorE
And know too many tears, too many tears
D MajorD     A augmentedA
Have been cried

Verse 2:
  E MajorE          D/ED/E
The mystery of why they had to leave
     A/EA/E           E MajorE
I'm only one of thousands saying why
   F# minorF#m         D#/G#
Why a balcony in Memphis, Tennessee
   G+G
Seems trapped in time
    D/F#D/F#         E MajorE    D/ED/E E MajorE
Just an angry finger pointing at the sky
     E MajorE        D/ED/E
Would you wait to stand inside his shoes?
     A/EA/E          E MajorE
And is the best all you have to give
  F# minorF#m         D#/G#
The barefoot man lived a simple life
 G+G
I guess he knew
  D/F#D/F#        E MajorE       D/ED/E E MajorE
Somethings die so other things might live

Have been cried
   A augmentedA       D MajorD
Just look into that beautiful blue
G+G             A augmentedA
That beautiful blue, blue sky
  C# minorC#m      F# minorF#m       E MajorE
And know too many tears, too many tears
D MajorD     A augmentedA
Have been cried
