Chris De Burgh - Read My Name
 
 
CAPO: 4th Fret
 
 
Am                   Dm                   G              C
For every child that has been born, there is a chance to shine,
    Dm           Am           E                B7
And everyone can have a dream until the end of time,
   Am             Dm            G                    C
So live for every moment as the world keeps turning 'round,
    Dm                 Am             E
And lift your hands up to the sky and say it loud and proud,
             Am    D    G  Am    D    G  Am
"I have been here, read my name, read my name!"
 
 
                     Dm                   G              C
For every child that has been born, there is a chance in life,
   Dm             Am              E              B7
To try it all and be someone with what we have inside,
   Am                Dm                  G             C
So don't give up and don't give in, just give it all instead,
    Dm                Am                 E  
And raise your voice above the crowd and let them know you've said..
             Am    D    G  Am    D    G  Am
"I have been here, read my name, read my name
     F                 G
With all I've got I've taken part,
     E                 Am
I've made a difference to the world,
  F                    G       C
I have been here, just read my name____!"
 
 
Am         Dm           G               C
Endlessly amazing and inventive that we are,
   Dm               Am            E                 B7
We dive the deepest oceans and we reach out for the stars,
    Am                 Dm        G            C
And one day there will be a man across the universe,
       Dm               Am                E  
Who'll say "I come from Planet Earth" and these will be his words..
             Am    D    G  Am    D    G  Am
"I have been here, read my name, read my name
     F                 G
With all I've got I've taken part,
     E                 Am
I've made a difference to the world,
  F                    G       C
I have been here, just read my name____!"
 
 
Am                    Dm              G                C
And when the darkness has to fall and comes the end of days,
       Dm               Am             E            B7
Then lift your hands up to the sky and say it once again....
E       C    F               G
"I have been here and I have taken part,
     E                 Am
I've made a difference to the world,
  F                    G       C
I have been here, just read my name____!"
 
 
Am        Dm           G        Am    C 
Da da da, da da da da, da da da da da da, 
         Dm     Am              E        B7              Am
Da da da da, da da da da, da da da da da da, yea-ea-a-ea-a
 Dm     Am   G       C            D
"I have been here... just read my name
Dm     Am  G       C             D
I've taken part... reach for the stars,
 Dm        Am G        C            D
Across the universe... we come from Planet Earth."
