 verse:
 G                    A
 Can you judge a man
        F#
 By the way he wears his hair
 G                     A
 Can you read his mind
        F#
 By the clothes that he wears
 E             F#
 Can you see a bad man
        G              A
 By the pattern on his tie

 Chorus:
            B                              A
 Well then mister you're a better man than I    4x
    (after 4th repeat)
 B    A    F#

 verse 2:

 Could you tell a wise man
 By the way he speaks or spells
 Is this more important
 Than the stories that he tells
 And call a man a fool
 If for wealth he doesn't strive

 Chorus
 Solo over G

 Verse 3:

 You condemn a man
 If you faith he doesn't hold
 You say the color of his skin
 Is the color of his soul
 Could you say that men
 For king and country all must die?

 Chorus
