Verse 1:
  G+G
The yoke of pride, so many times
  G+G
Has fallen on the best of us
  G+G
The yoke of pride, so many times
  G+G        FF       G+G
Has burdened us who dwell in charity
G+G
Why, you ask, not break the chains?
   G+G
T'is hard enough contending with
  G+G
The downward eyes of passer-bys
  G+G          FF       G+G
No hearth, no home, no love, no dignity

Chorus:
Eb MajorEb   G+G  FF   Eb MajorEb
Lo, yet one more decry
    Bb majorBb    D MajorD       Eb MajorEb
From an infamous throne such as mine
G+G  FF  C majorC

The rain still must fall

On a wanderer of such likeness

Fortune is a beggar’s bane
    G+G
Yet the stain blights us all
G+G
More so who thus deny it

Fortune is a beggar’s bane

Chorus:
Eb MajorEb    G+G   FF    Eb MajorEb
Now I'm a rogue in your eyes
   Bb majorBb     D MajorD     Eb MajorEb
But I once was a yeoman who shined
    G+G   FF   C majorC
With a place at the table
   Eb MajorEb     D MajorD   G+G
With laymen and lords alike

Now I find myself in the mire

Of a world still unfolding itself

In a wondrous and slow decline
