[Verse 1]
    Eb
My ancestors were kings of old
              Ab
They ruled the world and all of its 
gold
           Bb     Ab              
But look at me, oh look at me, 
         Eb
just look at me

    Eb
My ancestors would find the sun
           Ab
Before they bowed down to anyone
Continues after the ad
             Bb             Ab    
But you gonna look at me, oh look 
                   Eb
at me, just look at me
       Ab                 Eb
Yeah, oh look at me, I'm a stranger 
in this land
Ab                  Bb
Watch me stand tall, help me, help 
me be just a man, oh

And my son, he will be one of them

And they'll just look at him, yeah,
        Ab
 they'll look at him
                Eb           Db   
And they'll say, he's a man, he's

a man, my son's a man, oh
