VERSE
Dm
On a hill, inside a house in 
Covewell Reach
Dm                            
Stands a man who's feeling very 
  C
tired
F                               E
Looking at a song he wrote some time
 ago
Am                            
Could have made it big inside a 
  G
Broadway show


VERSE
Dm
Every day I go away and find ideas
Continúa después del anuncio
Dm                                
Think I'll climb on top of 
   C
somewhere high
F                               E
Couldn't I write a song about a man 
who's dead?
Am                           G
Didn't really know if he was off his
 head


CHORUS
G         E      Am              
Ev'rybody knows, that's the way 
  F#
it goes
    G               E
Too bad for Gilbert Green
    C               A             
Now we can tell the world that he 
    Dm
was right


INTERLUDE

VERSE
Dm
Sitting in his attic on a sunny day
Dm                             C
Mending fifty goblets that are worn
F                          
Humming to himself a song of 
  E
yesteryear
    Am                          G
His hearing wasn't good but his eyes
 were clear


CHORUS
G         E      Am              
Ev'rybody knows, that's the way 
  F#
it goes
    G               E
Too bad for Gilbert Green
    C               A             
Now we can tell the world that he 
    Dm
was right

VERSE
Dm
Now the house is burnt, along with 
Gilbert Green
Dm                               C
Sad to see his sisters stand and cry
    F                              
And in the basement lies a song 
  E
that wasn't seen
Am                                 
Tells the tale of laughing men and 
G
yellow beans



CHORUS
G         E      Am              
Ev'rybody knows, that's the way 
  F#
it goes
    G               E
Too bad for Gilbert Green
    C               A             
Now we can tell the world that he 
    D5
was right
