[G#] Oh [F#] yeah,
[G#] oh [C#] yeah, [G#] [F#] alright.
Well [G#] they tell me up up high up in the sky, [F#] waiting for me when I die.
[G#] But you dream the day you're born or when you die.
[F#] They never seem to hear even your cry.
So [F] I sure as the sun will shine, I'm [A#m] gonna get my share now, what's mine.
And [G#] then the harder they come, [F#] the harder they fall, [C#] one and all.
Ooh, [G#] the harder they come, [F#] the harder they fall, one [C#] and all.
