Merely A Man

        E  E A E  E A
Higher

[Verse 1]
E                            
I'm a king, yes, I'm a head of 
      A
state.
E                              A 
But I'm the kitchen boy who'll 
        E
wash your dirty plate.
E                              
I had no message and the message 
    A
was,
E                              
We're all Jesus, Buddha, and the 
             A
Wizard of Oz.

[Chorus]
G#           D#
I'm merely a man,
            A#                   
And I bring nothing but love for 
D#
you.
G#            D#
I'm merely a man,
           A#                     
And I want nothing that you can't 
G#
do.
         B
And you know it's true.
          B7                     
That with logic and love we'll be 
                    E         A
lifting humanity higher.
E        A
Higher.

[Verse 2]
E                              
I'm all religious figures rolled 
        A
into one,
E                                 
Gaddafy Duck propelled from Jimmy 
A                E
Swaggart's tommy gun.
E                              
Don't promise rainbows with some 
         A
golden pot,
E                             
In fact what I can offer I know 
          A
you've already got.

[Chorus]
G#           D#
I'm merely a man,
            A#                   
And I bring nothing but love for 
D#
you.
G#            D#
I'm merely a man,
           A#                     
And I want nothing that you can't 
G#
do.
         B7
And you know it's true.
          B
That with logic and love we'll have 
power enough
To raise consciousness up and for 
                 G#       D#
lifting humanity higher.
A#      D#     G#    D#   A#   G#
Higher!
        B7
And you know it's true.
          B
We should chase superstition and 
fear from our hearts,
If we're going to survive and take 
                  E        A
levels of sanity higher.
              E            A
Kick it up... Higher.
