Artist: Burt Bacharach
[Dmaj7]Like a grain of sand
Bminor7
That wants to be
A rolling stone
Eminor7
I want to be the man
I'm not
And have the things
I really[A7] haven't [Dmaj7]got
And that's a [Gmaj7]lot
[Gmaj7]There'll be joy
F#min7 Eminor
And there'll be laughter
Dmajor7 Gmaj7 Gminor7
Something big is what I'm after now
Bminor7 Amajor Gmajor7
Yes, it's what I'm after now
Gmajor7
After taking
Fminor7 Eminor
Take up giving
Dmajor7 Gmajor7 Gminor7
Something big is what I'm living for
Bminor7 Amajor Gmajor7
Yes, it's what I'm living for
Bmajor7
Living for

Just repeat the chords for the rest of the song.

Why do I go on
And fill my life with little things
When there are big things I must do
And lots of dreams
That really should come true
Before I'm through
There'll be joy
And there'll be laughter
Something big is what I'm after now
Yes, it's what I'm after now
After taking
Take up giving
Something big is what I'm living for
Yes, it's what I'm living for
Living for
