Chords

[Intro] D G A G D [Verse 1]
D
Some men are born to satin and silk

G
Given the world to bend to their will

A
Some men are born for nothing, but still

G                             D
They have the stars for their crown
[Verse 2]
D
Some men climb ladders of fortune and fame

G
Drink out of silver on their own private trains

      A
While out in the night, men without knights

G                              D
Sleep with the stars for their crown
[Bridge]
G
Some men will give everything that they own

      D
Right down to their souls, for cold little stones

G
Never once look in the sky, or they'd know

     A
That diamonds ain't diamonds; gold it ain't gold
[Interlude] D G A G D [Verse 3]
  D
I am no believer in all things that are wise

           G
There's no god, rich or poor, for who I'd lay down my life

A
Some men are born to those things, but not I

G                       D
I have the stars for my crown
[Verse 4]
        D
I met a cowboy, a drifter, a confidence man

     G
I've lost track of whether I'm saved or I'm damned

A
Those are just handles, I know what I am

G                        D
Look at the stars for my crown

A
Those are just handles, I know what I am

G                        D
Look at the stars for my crown
[Outro] G A G D
