Chords

Written by Brian May Album: Queen, 1973 [Verse 1]
      F
I was told a million times

           Bb             F
Of all the troubles in my way
How to grow a little wiser,
       Bb           F
Little better every day

         C
But if I crossed a million rivers

      Db
And I rode a million miles

         Ab
Then I'd still be where I started

          C
Bread and butter for a smile

       F
Well I sold a million mirrors

     Bb             F
In a shoppin' alley way
But I never saw my face
       Bb         F
In any window any day

          C
Well they say your folks are telling you

   Db
To be a superstar

      Ab
But I tell you just be satisfied

   A7
To stay right where you are
[Chorus]
D             G
Keep yourself alive

D             A
keep yourself alive

      D                 D
It'll take you all your time and a money

D     A         D
Honey you'll survive
[Verse 2]
          F
Well I've loved a million women

     Bb         F
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
           Bb           F
Brought to me on silver trays

        C
Give me everything I need

           Db
To feed my body and my soul

         Ab
And I'll grow a little bigger

      C
Maybe that can be my goal

      F
I was told a million times

           Bb           F
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
        Bb           F
And get better every day

         C
But if I crossed a million rivers

      Db
And I rode a million miles

         Ab
Then I'd still be where I started

A7
Still be where I started
[Chorus]
D             G     D             A

D             G      D              A
Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive

      D                 G
It'll take you all your time and money

To keep me satisfied
[Bridge] N.C. Do you think you're better every day No, I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave [Chorus]
