        Am                F
I'm the man of a thousand faces,
         G              Am               Am F G Am
a little piece of me in every part I take.


           Am                  F
I hold the tape for a thousand races,
            G                 Am             Am F G Am
a different point of view  in every speech I make.


Am                F          G          Am
Cut me a piece of my devided soul.
Am             F               G        Am
Cry me a river, call it rock'n roll.


Am             F                 G       Am
Give me an attitude and watch me make it lie.
Am             F                G
Pass me a microphone, I need to testify.


       C                          F
Will I speak to machines with the voice of humanity,
C                          F
speak to the wise with the voice of insanity,
C                                               F
speak to the present in the past and the future tense,
     G
I'll speak to a slave with the voice of obedience.

Am                              D
I stole a fire but it burned up much too soon.
Am                                D
I took a leap and I landed on the moon.
F                                 G
Look at my life and it looks like CNN.
F                              G
See something once y'know it's gonna come around again.

I stole a fire but it burned up much too soon.

I took a leap and I landed on the moon.
