I used to be
[G] a Pharisee,
[Am] cynical and wise, [F] telling rich and godly [G] lies of humanity.
But [C] in the marketplace was seated [G] a cripple with a liar.
[Dm] I looked at him and said, I've [Em] been rich but [G] so unhappy.
[F] What sets you so on [G] fire?
And he [C] said, look upon me brother, I'm a man with peace of mind.
[Am] You know I've never been [F] much good at nothing but [G] the words I wrote in rhyme.
[C] Have a good woman to feed me and [G] friends to share a brew.
[A] [Dm] At evenings we will sit [G] around and sing together [F] and it could be the same for [C] you.
If you [F] just hold on to [G] young friends you're made [C] of old.
[F] And cleave to [G] the woman that keeps [C] you whole.
And [F] keep a warm fire for [G] all your friends who come in [Em] from the cold.
[Dm] I love you as a brother and I don't even know your [F] name.
I know this must sound different but [G] for me it's always been [C] the same.
Tonight the smoke is rising from all around the room.
[Am] And judging by the warmth [F] of the smell from the kitchen [G] there'll be supper ready soon.
And [C] our table's set for twenty, room for more if they should come.
[Dm] And later on we'll pass [Em] around the pipe [G] for our pleasure [F] and sit and take a little [C] rum.
And we [F] will hold on to [G] young friends we made [C] of old.
[F] And cleave [G] to the woman that keeps [C] us whole.
And [F] keep a warm fire [G] for all our friends who come in [Em] from the cold.
[D] We love [Dm] them all as brothers and we don't have to know [F] their names.
[Dm] We know this must sound different [G] but for us it always [C] stays the [C] same.
[F] Hold on to [G] young friends you make [C] of old.
[F] And cleave [G] to the woman that keeps [C] you whole.
And keep [F] a warm fire for all [G] your friends who come in [Em] from the cold.
[D] Now I love [Dm] you all as brothers and I don't have to know your [F]
names.
I used to be so [A] different now I [G] know I'll always stay the [C] same.
