HE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD
INTRO: A7 Dm F Dm
A7
We passed upon the stair
Dm
We spoke of was and when
A7
Although I was'nt there
F
He said I was his friend
C
Which came as some surprise
A7
I spoke into his eyes
Dm
I thought you died alone
C
A long long time ago
CHORUS 1:
C F
Oh no not me
Bbm F
I never lost control
C F
You're face to face
Bbm
With the man who sold the world
BREAK: A7 Dm F Dm
A7
I laughed and shook his hand
Dm
And made my way back home
A7
I searched for form and land
F
For years and years I roamed
C
I gazed a gazley stare
A7
At all the millions here
Dm
We must have died alone
C C
A long long time ago
CHORUS 2:
C F
Who knows, Not me
Bbm F
We never lost control
C F
You're face to face
Bbm
With the man who sold the world
BREAK: A7 Dm F Dm
CHORUS 3:
C F
Who knows, Not me
Bbm F
We never lost control
C F
You're face to face
Bbm A7
With the man who sold the world

I'm with Mark - Db does sound a lot more accurate.
MARK EGGERTSEN
19/1/2003 - 5:28:43 No, I reiterate. It IS Db. Bbm doesn't fir the scale that is being played simultaneously on lead.

Hi,
WONDERFUL site. However, I think on this song there is a mistake or two.
C F
"Oh no, not me,"
Db F
"We never lost control"
While I've seen variations, and didn't play this right myself until I saw this site, I gathered that Db, rather than B is used in part because Db sounds right, and because on the recording if you listen closely, the lead guitar plays:
