Beautiful song, but the guitar part is really easy. Simply D , F#m , G , D repeated throughout the song. D Our nest egg may be rotten F#m And all our dreams forgotten G But I am not down-trodden D I'm a floatin' D And you might say I'm a driftin' F#m Just a sifter out siftin' G But the point is listenin' D On the way D And now my bow is a listin' F#m There?s no oil in my piston G And the shot I fire is missin' D The mark [Bridge] same D , F# , G , D pattern D It's a lie F#m It's a lie G It's a lie that you gotta be the big man D The big man in this world D It's a lie F#m Oh it's a lie G It's a lie that you gotta be the big man D The big man in this world D And now our nest egg's rotten F#m But our love is not forgotten G And I am not a down-trodden D I'm a floatin'
