B
We know you're watching over us
G
the job you took for better or worse
B
dying in the scene from the burning cold
G
you turned this desert from dust to gold

B                 A       B         D E
Someone was born to be a beauty king
                      D        E            A B
all ripping muscles when his sun-kissed skin
                  A       B          C G
and getting paid for the shape I'm in
                            A         B
God's gift to women and I knew it then

I love to sting them like a butterfly
I used to kill them for the natural high
a real hoot, such a crazy guy
another shooter hold me out to dry

E                             G#m E
Suddenly the blind man can see
                              G
suddenly the force is with me
 D    A    D    G    D    A
oh   Lord, to  have, to  hold
 D    G    A  B
like dust to gold

You wouldn't ever wanna treat with me
a belt fasten and a downhill ski
no-one would touch me with a ten foot pin
'cos there was no telling where I'd been

A multi-national waste of space
by five o' clock I will be off of my face
without a single litlte saving grace
and yet you call me for the human race

Suddenly the blind man can see
suddenly the force is with me
oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold

B                              A G
We know you're watching over us
                                    A B
the job you took for better or worse
                                         A G
dying in the scene from the burning cold
                                         A B
you turned this desert from dust to gold

Suddenly the blind man can see
suddenly the force is with me
oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold
with me oh Lord, to have, to hold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
like dust to gold
