Am                                        Em
It's six O'clock, good morning sounds are everywhere

Am                                          Em
The warmth of spring, a gentle breeze blows through my hair

        F                                 Em
I hurry through my life never stopping to see

    F                         G
How beautiful it was meant to be

           Am      G               F
I'm just a prisoner in a king's disguise

G  C   Am    G              F  G
Broken dreams as we shuffle by
[Verse 2]
Am                                       Em
It's six O'clock, it's quitting time I'm done for the day

Am                               Em
Out on the streets I overheard a lady say

            F                       Em
We now have everything or so people say

             F                         G
But now this emptiness haunts me every day

            am          G              F
We seek the lion's share never knowing why

G    C Am G                      G
Come alive spread your wings and fly
[Chorus]
C         F/C  C                   F/C
Pieces of eight the search for the money tree

Am                              G    F
Don't cash your freedoms in for gold

C         F/C  C                   F/C
Pieces of eight can't buy you everything

Am                              G     F
Don't let it turn your heart to stone
[Bridge] Am Dm G Am Dm E Am F G Am F G Am F G Am F G Am F G C Am F G C Am F G C Am F G C Am F G [Chorus 2]
C         F/C  C                   F/C
Pieces of eight the search for the money tree

Am                              G    F
Don't cash your freedoms in for gold

C         F/C  C                      F/C
Pieces of eight treasures filled with emptiness

Am                              G     F
Don't let it turn your heart to stone

C         F/C  C                   F/C
Pieces of eight the search for the money tree

Am                              G    F
Don't cash your freedoms in for gold

C         F/C  C                      F/C
Pieces of eight treasures filled with emptiness

Am                              D
Don't let it turn your heart to stone
