KING MIDAS IN REVERSE- The Hollies/Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young
G C
If you could only see me
G C CaddF C CaddA
And know exactly who I am
G C
You wouldn`t want to be me
B7
Why I can assure you of that
G C
I`m not the guy to run with
G C
Cos I`ll throw you off the line
G C
I`ll break you and destroy you
B7
Given time
CHORUS:
G Fmaj7 FaddG
He`s King Midas with a curse
C G G/C G
He`s King Midas in reverse
G Fmaj7 FaddG
He`s King Midas with a curse
C G
He`s King Midas in reverse
It`s plain to see it`s hopeless
Going on the way we are
So even though I lose you
We`d be better off by far
BRIDGE:
Bm
He`s not the man to hold your trust
BmaddBb Bm7 E
Everything he touches turns to dust in his hands
Bm
Nothing he can do is right
BmaddBb Bm7 E
He`d even like to sleep at night, but he can`t
CHORUS
I wish someone would find me
And help me gain control
Before I lose my reason and my soul
CHORUS
CaddF: x 3 2 0 1 1 CaddA: x 3 2 0 3 0 FaddG: x x 3 2 1 3
BmaddBb: x 2 4 3 3 2 Bm7: x 2 4 2 3 2
NOTE: This Graham Nash song was a hit for the Hollies, but I know it as
a bonus track on the CD version of CSNY`s Four Way Street.
