[Verse]
E                B7            E    
Once upon a time there lived a man  Hmm Hmm

A                           E
Many years ago in a foreign land

   A                       E
He knew how to live right, tried to be a light

                 B7      E
Gave everybody a helping hand
[Chorus]
  E              B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way Hmm Hmm

 E               B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way

   A                         E
Do the kind of things Lord a man oughta do

A                        E
Say the kind of things a man oughta say

E                B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way
[Verse]
   E             B7    E
He never done anybody wrong

   A                        E
He tried to help everybody 'long

   A                        E
He brought a better land to make a better man
Out of the rich or the poor
                   E
Or the weak or the strong

E                        B7        E
And he preached love and brotherhood

   A                             E
He went around doin' good, doin' good

A                  E
Everywhere he went they knew that he was sent

                              B7          E
And the people started actin' like they should
[Chorus]
  E              B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way Hmm Hmm

 E               B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way

   A                         E
Do the kind of things Lord a man oughta do

A                        E
Say the kind of things a man oughta say

E                B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way
