I love this musical :)

EPharaoh, (022100@1)he was

A powerful man

With the ancient world

In the palm of his hand
DTo (xx0232@1)all intents and purposes he

Was Egypt with a capital E
EWhatever (022100@1)he did

He was showered with praise

If he cracked a joke

Then you chortled for days
DNo-one (xx0232@1)had rights or a

Vote but the king

In fact you might say

He was fairly right-wing
EWhen (022100@1)Pharaoh's around,
          DThen (xx0232@1)you get down on the ground
E (022100@1)                  A (x02220@1)       DIf (xx0232@1)you ever find yourself near Ramases
EGet (022100@1)down on your knees

EA (022100@1)Pharaoh's story,
  A (x02220@1)       DA (xx0232@1)Pharaoh's story
EA (022100@1)Pharaoh's story,
  A (x02220@1)       DA (xx0232@1)Pharaoh's story

Down at the other
End of the scale
Joseph is still
Doing time in jail
For even though he is
In with the guards
A lifetime in prison
Seems quite on the cards
But if my analysis of
The position is right
At the end of the tunnel
There's seems a glimmer of light
For all of a sudden
Indescribable things
Have shattered the sleep
        EOf (022100@1)both peasants and kings

Strange as it seems,
                            DThere's (xx0232@1)been a run of crazy dreams
E (022100@1)               DAnd (xx0232@1)a man who can interpret
A (x02220@1)                           ECould (022100@1)go far - could become a star

ECould (022100@1)be famous,
DCould (xx0232@1)be a big success
