[Verse 1]
A               F#m          D                E
 Fortune has me well in hand, armies wait at my command

    Bm            E           D              A             D   A D E
My gold lies in a foreign land buried deep beneath the sand

    A               F#m           D             E
The angels guide my every tread, my enemies are sick or dead

    Bm            E           D                    A        D   A D E
But all the victories I've led haven't brought you to my bed
[Chorus]

You see, everybody loves me, baby,

D                        E
 what's the matter with you?

          Bm                 E
Won't you tell me what did I do

to offend you?
[Verse 2]
        A                F#m              D            E
Now the purest race I've bred for thee to live in my democracy

        Bm            E         D                     A     D   A D E
And the highest human pedigree awaits the first-born boy baby

       A             F#m           D                   E
And my face on every coin engraved, the anarchists are all enslaved

   Bm             E                 D                 A       D   A D E
My own flag is forever waved by the grateful people I have saved
[Chorus]

You see, everybody loves me, baby,

D                        E
 what's the matter with you?

Won't you tell me what did I do

      A        D   A D E
to offend you?
[Verse 3]
    A             F#m                D                     E
Now, no land is beyond my claim when land is seized in the people's name

  Bm            E               D                A          D   A D E
By evil men who rob and maim, if war is hell, I'm not to blame!

         A                  F#m                      D                  E
Why, you can't blame me, I'm Heaven's child, I'm the, the second son of Mary mild

        Bm                E                 D                    A          D   A D E
And I'm twice removed from Oscar Wilde, but he didn't mind, why, he just smiled
[Verse 4]

Yes, and the ocean parts when I walk through, and the clouds dissolve and the sky turns blue

   Bm            E              D             A       D   A D E
I'm held in very great value by everyone I meet but you

            A               F#m           D                      E
'Cause I've used my talents as I could, I've done some bad, I've done some good

        Bm                         E                  D                        A          D   A D E
I did a whole lot better than they thought I would so, c'mon and treat me like you should!
[Chorus]

Because everybody loves me, baby,
