I Contain Multitudes

Intro C  Am  C  Am 

 C                       Am 
Today and tomorrow, and yesterday, too 
Am                G             C      
The flowers are dyin like all things do 
 D#º 
Follow me close 
              Em       F 
I'm going to Balian Bali 
C 
I'll lose my mind 
                        G 
If you don't come with me 
   F 
I fuss with my hair 
       F#º 
And I fight blood feuds 
C          F    C 
I contain multitudes 

 C                    Am 
Got a tell-tale heart, like Mr. Poe 
 Am                   G 
Got skeletons in the walls 
                C 
Of people you know 
       D#º 
I'll drink to the truth 
          Em       F 
And the things we said 
       C 
I'll drink to the man 
                  G 
That shares your bed 
F                          F#º 
I paint landscapes, and I paint nudes 
C          F    C 
I contain multitudes 

 C          Am           
Red Cadillac and a black mustache 
 Am          G 
Rings on my fingers 
       C 
That sparkle and flash 
 D#º 
Tell me, what's next? 
       Em      F 
What shall we do? 
 C                              G 
Half my soul, baby, belongs to you 
   F 
I relic and I frolic 
     F#º 
With all the young dudes 
C          F    C    E7/G# 
I contain multitudes 

Am 
I'm just like Anne Frank 
Am7M 
Like Indiana Jones 
Am7 
And them British bad boys 
              Am/F#  E7/G# 
The Rolling Stones 
Am 
I go right to the edge 
      Am7M 
I go right to the end 
Am7 
I go right where all things lost 
                Am/F# 
Are made good again 

   C 
I sing the songs of experience 
               Am 
Like William Blake 
Am              G       C 
I have no apologies to make 
D#º 
Everything's flowing 
Em                   Dm 
All at the same time 
C                            G 
I live on the boulevard of crime 
F                        F#º 
I drive fast cars, and I eat fast foods 
C          F    C 
I contain multitudes 

 C                 Am 
Pink petal-pushers, red blue jeans 
Am 
All the pretty maids 
    G             C 
And all the old queens 
D#º 
All the old queens 
     Em           F 
From all my past lives 
C 
I carry four pistols 
                G 
And two large knives 
       F 
I'm a man of contradictions 
       F#º 
I'm a man of many moods 
C          F    C    E7/G# 
I contain multitudes 

Am 
You greedy old wolf 
Am7M 
I'll show you my heart 
     Am7 
But not all of it 
          Am/F#       E7/G# 
Only the hateful part 
Am 
I'll sell you down the river 
             Am7M 
I'll put a price on your head 
      Am7 
What more can I tell you? 
I sleep with life and death 
             Am/F# 
In the same bed 

 C               Am 
Get lost, madame, get up off my knee 
 Am               G        C 
Keep your mouth away from me 
      D#º 
I'll keep the path open 
     Em         F 
The path in my mind 
      C 
I'll see to it that there's 
              G 
No love left behind 
F 
I'll play Beethoven's sonatas 
      F#º 
And Chopin's preludes 
C          F    C 
I contain multitudes
