Selection chords: Katie Paterson

F#m           C#
The pagodas and the palaces
           F#m               C#
Dressed in gold leaf hide the damages
         F#m           C#
Spot the Geisha as she balances
           D               A
Lifeʼs a cakewalk, full of challenges

      F#m             C#m
Go to Russia, see the Red Square
        D          A
Leninʼs body lying dead there
       F#m      C#
From Kyoto, Hiroshima
          D                    A
Watch the black cloud crawling nearer


           D         A
There were riots in America
          C#                 F#m
Just when things were getting better
        D                   A
All the things Iʼve done and seen
        C#                   F#m
Still I donʼt know what life means

        F#m           D          A              C#7
All the people living in, living in the world today
        F#m         D            A            C#7
Weʼre united by our love, weʼre united by our pain
 F#m         D                A               E
Ooh, all the things that Iʼve done and Iʼve seen
F#m         D                 A              E
   Still, I donʼt know, donʼt know what it means

       F#m              C#
Fly to Athens, pass the Parthenon
        D                C#
See the village where my fatherʼs from
      F#m         C#7
To Chicago from Angola
    D           A
São Paulo to Verona

    D                       A
And anywhere you go, youʼll see (Ooh)
           C#               F#m
People are just like you and me (Ooh)
        D                   A
All the things Iʼve done and seen
         C#                   F#m
Still, I donʼt know what life means

        F#m           D          A              C#7
All the people living in, living in the world today
        F#m         D            A            C#7
Weʼre united by our love, weʼre united by our pain
 F#m         D                A               E
Ooh, all the things that Iʼve done and Iʼve seen
F#m         D                 A              E
   Still, I donʼt know, donʼt know what it means
      F#m   D             A        C#7
To be human (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
F#m   D                A       C#7
      (Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
F#m         D                 A              E
   Still, I donʼt know, donʼt know what it means
F#m        D      A            E
   To be human, a real human being

  C#             F#m         C#             F#m
I like to think about how we all look from afar
       A             D              A              E
People driving fancy cars look like beetles to the stars
    C#               F#m              C#              F#m
The missiles and the bombs sound like symphonies gone wrong
    A             D            A                E
And if there is a God, theyʼll know why itʼs so hard

      F#m   D             A        C#7
To be human (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
F#m   D                A       C#7
      (Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
      F#m           D                 A              E
To be hu-  still, I donʼt know, donʼt know what it means
F#m        D      A            E
   To be human, a real human being
       F#m             D         A   C#7
(To be human)I want connection, ooh
F#m       D    A     C#7
I wanna feel human again
       F#m             D         A   C#7
(To be human)Lost my direction, ooh
F#m       D    A     C#7
I wanna feel human again
