	Em	D
	They say that Richard Cory owns one	half of this whole town,

	Em	B7
With polit	ical connections He spread	s his wealth around. He Was

	A7
	Born into society, a banker's only child,

	Em	D	G	A	B7
He had	every	thing a	man could	want:	Money , Praise , and style.

	Em	D
	The papers print his picture almost	everyplace he goes:

	Em	B7
Richard C	ory at the opera,	Richard Cory at The shows

	A7
And the	rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht!

	Em	D	G	A	B
He	Really	must be	happy		with everything he's got.

	G	Em
	But I work in his	factory

	Am	Em
	And I curse the life I'm	living

	Am	Em
	I curse my po	verty

	Am	Em
	I wish that I could	be,

	Am	Em
	I wish that I could	be,

	Am	B7
	Oh, I wish that I could	be,

	Em
John	Denver.

	Em	D
	He Really gave to The charity,	had the common touch,

	Em	B7
And they were	Thankful for his patronage.. So	They thank You very much,

	A7
So my	mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:

	Em	D	G	Em
"	Richard	Cory went	home last night and put a bullet through his head."

	G	Em
	But I work in his	factory

	Am	Em
	And I curse the life I'm	living

	Am	Em
	I curse my po	verty

	Am	Em
	I wish that I could	be,

	Am	Em
	I wish that I could	be,

	Am	B7
	Oh, I wish that I could	be,

	Em
Richard	Cory.
