This transcription requires considerable poetic licence.

Obviously there are no guitars in the original recording.

However the chords below do relate to the chords created

by the mix of the various intruments used.

It works best if you strum briskly with the emphasis on

downstrokes.

@ From Rags To Riches

E

I leave the home of a lifetime

Asus2/F#

Like any son

E6 Asus2

I have hope and good intentions

E

And wandering into the daybreak

Asus2/F#

I learn as I go

E6 Asus2 Esus4

To fall laughing into the water

E Asus2/F#

Sticks and the stones are your broken promises

E Asus2/F#

We wait too long to go from rags to riches

Esus4 Asus2/F#

I am in love, I am in love with a feeling

E6 Esus4

A wild wild sky, a wild wild sky

E

Fences and tumble down bridges

Aus2/F#

Surround and divide

E6 Esus4

I wear a coat of many colours, of many colours

Esus4 Asus2/F#

The sticks and the stones, our broken promises

E Asus2/F#

I wait no longer to go from rags to riches

Play - E Asus2/F# E6 Esus4

(I could not work out any chords for this instrumental part so

suggest you go round once with the main sequence)

E

People are leaving the squalor

Asus2/F#

They're leaving their houses and fires

E6

And starting out

Esus4

We find the waiting country

E Asus2/F#

Sticks and the stones are your broken promises

E Asus2/F#

I wait no longer, I go from rags to riches

E

From rags to riches

Asus2/F#

I go from rags to riches

E6

Go from rags to riches

Asus2 Esus4

From rags to riches
