A D
If there is a land
A E
Somewhere in my dreams
A D
Where deep underground, there's a lesson to be found
A E A
I'm sure that I don't know what it means
A D
Andre was a man
A E
Stood near eight feet tall
A D
Touched the very sky, and whenever he walked by
A E A
He made all the grown men look so small
πΈ Chorus:
Bm
But all the gray-haired wrestlers say,
E F#m
You should've seen his glory days
D A E
He was beautiful, for what it's worth
E
When the world was young, and giants roamed the earth
A D A E
πΈ Verse 2:
A D
Andre was the king
A E
And heavy was his crown
A D
He battled on TV in WrestleMania Number Three
A E A
With Hulk Hogan in a final title bout
A D
And Andre fought like hell
A E
At the Silverdome

But his back began to hurt, and the pain kept getting worse

And Hulk Hogan threw the Giant from his throne

Andre died in France
A E
Near his childhood home
A D
And Hogan didn't cry, but there was silence on the line
A E A
When they told him that the Giant died alone
A D
And they say Hogan sleeps
A E
On a bed of gold
A D
And I don't know what's true, or what giant slayers do,
A E A
Or what any of us do when we get old
πΈ Chorus:
Bm
But all the gray-haired wrestlers say,
E F#m
You should've seen his glory days
D A E
He was beautiful, for what it's worth
Bm
Yes, all the gray-haired wrestlers say,
E F#m
You should've seen his glory days
D A E
He was beautiful, for what it's worth
E
When the world was young, and giants roamed the earth
