Intro A7
AmThey say that Richard Cory owns one Ghalf of this whole town
With Ampolitical connections to E7spread his wealth around
D5Born into society a banker's only child
He had AmeveryGthing a Cman could want; E7power, grace and style
CBut I -- work in his Amfactory
And i D5curse the life I'm living,
And I curse my poverty
And i wish that I could be, Coh I wish that I could Ambe
Oh I D5wish that i could D7be - Richard AmCory
The pAmapers print his picture almost Geverywhere he goes
Richard CAmory at the opera, Richard E7Cory at a show
And the rD5umours of his parties and the orgies on his yacht
Oh, he sAmurely mGust be hCappy with eE7verything he's got
CBut I -- work in his Amfactory
And I D5curse the life I'm living,
And I curse my poverty
And i wish that I could be, Coh I wish that I could Ambe
Oh I D5wish that i could D7be - Richard AmCory
He fAmreely gave to charities, he Ghad the common touch
And they were gAmrateful for his patronage, and they E7thanked him very much
So my D5mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read
AmRichard GCory went Chome last night and put a Ambullet through his head
CBut I -- work in his Amfactory
And i D5curse the life I'm living,
And I curse my poverty
And i wish that I could be, Coh I wish that I could Ambe
Oh I D5wish that i could E7be - Richard AmCory
