Words and music by Brian May
Transcribed by Gonzalo Plaza (gplaza@gloria.cnt.cl)
In order to make things easier, make the A chord like (x0222x),
all with
the index finger.

Let the last A and the D/A ring a little..

   A           D/A    A           D/A    A           D/A   E/A 
A =20

A--0---0---0----0-----0---0---0----0-----0---0---0----0-----0----7
E--x---x---x----x-----x---x---x----x-----x---x---x----x-----x----x

Repeat it two times for the intro (In the first the E/A is
played 3 times,
like the A before)

 Here we      stand  or here  we fall     history won't   care
at all
 Make  the    bed,    light to light, Lady Mercy won't be  home
tonight
  E/A               D/A      A                                D

 You don't waste no time at all, don't hear the bell but you
answer the call
 It comes to you as  to us  all,  we're just waiting for the
hammer to fall

Repeat it two times, same as intro (In the first the E/A is
played 3 times,
like the A before)

 O  every   night,  and  every  day,  a little piece of you is
falling away
 But lift your face,  the Western Way, build your muscles as
your body decays

  E/A               D/A      A                                D

Toe your line and play their game,      let the anaesthesic
cover   it all
Till one day they call your name,you know it's time for the
hammer to fall

Rich or poor or famous for you truth it's all the same
Lock your door but rain is pouring through your window pane=20

What the hell we  fighting  for?, just surrender and it won't
hurt   at all
You just got time to say your prayers,
