[VERSE 1:]
 C majorC         E minorEm      A minorAm    C majorC
I wear the face of every man
      DmDm FF            G+G
And I see with other's eyes
 C majorC        E minorEm         A minorAm      C majorC
I have no vice and I have no plans
     DmDm         FF         G+G
Have no certain colour or size


[VERSE 2:]
   FF            G+G        C majorC ~ A minorAm
My brother is a wild sea sailor
   FF            G+G        C majorC
My sister is an organised poem
  FF       G+G            C majorC ~ A minorAm
My father is a working shaman
    Dm7Dm7    FF    G+G
And I am a man alone___

[CHORUS:]
    FF G+G              C majorC ~ A minorAm    FF
But I'm not going to lay down
        G+G     C majorC
I'm not going to cry
G+G                FF          G+G
I'm not going to stay down
            C majorC
I'm too old to die


[VERSE 3:]
              E minorEm      A minorAm       C majorC
And to work is not my problem
   DmDm FF         G+G
To die is not my goal
C majorC    E minorEm        A minorAm C majorC
Love is not my money
     DmDm      FF      G+G
This world is not my foal


[VERSE 4:]
    FF          G+G     C majorC  ~  A minorAm
I've fought on every battlefield
     FF  G+G       C majorC
That anyone can name
FF            G+G         C majorC       ~     A minorAm
I've fought against my friends and myself
    Dm7Dm7 FF           G+G
And I    accept the blame___


[CHORUS:]
    FF G+G              C majorC ~ A minorAm    FF
But I'm not going to lay down
        G+G     C majorC
I'm not going to cry
G+G                FF          G+G
I'm not going to stay down
            C majorC
I'm too old to die


[VERSE 5:]
            E minorEm         A minorAm     C majorC
I'm present at your conventions
  DmDm   FF            G+G
I follow the path of time
 C majorC        E minorEm          A minorAm C majorC
I have to lose your inventions
    DmDm            FF             G+G
The gains and the losses are all mine


[VERSE 6:]
    FF         G+G        C majorC ~   A minorAm
I've read the books of every man
     FF   G+G        C majorC
And I know some do sing
   FF            G+G          C majorC    ~      A minorAm
It bothers me I do and the very best I can
    Dm7Dm7     FF               G+G
The rest is waiting for something___


[CHORUS:]
    FF G+G              C majorC ~ A minorAm    FF
But I'm not going to lay down
        G+G     C majorC
I'm not going to cry
