[INTRO:] C majorC E minorEm A minorAm C majorC DmDm FF G+G

[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

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

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

I'm not going to stay down
      C majorC
I'm too old to die
         FF     G+G
I'm not going to stay down
N.C.      FF   C majorC
