BIG MEN IN THE SKY ? Mandolin Orange
Intro: A augmentedA B minorBm G+G
D MajorD
Well I wake up in the morning, try to set my hook
D MajorD D7D7
I used to be a settled boy, never stumbled or shook
G+G D MajorD
But now I've got no hand to hold, no friend to call my own
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G
And I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I got
D MajorD
So maybe I'll pick up and go, with no thinkin' through
D MajorD D7D7
Just sleep out every night and try to forget you
G+G D MajorD
I'd look out on some ocean, wash my head in blue
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I got
Instrumental Break : Repeat Verse Chords
D MajorD
Been a-rockin' and a-rollin', reelin' in my time
D MajorD D7D7
I set myself up fancy-like, and set a brand new line
G+G D MajorD
Well I oughta know by now, it comes and goes it's true
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I got
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
Mmmmm Mmmmmmm Mmmmm X4
D MajorD
Well thinkin' ain't no pastime and thinkin' ain't no friend
D MajorD D7D7
If all you do is sit around and think about the end
G+G D MajorD
Maybe I will get to prayin' someday before I'm through
A augmentedA B minorBm G+G D MajorD
But I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I got
Outro: A augmentedA B minorBm G+G - D MajorD
