Richard Cory
2nd verse
---------
Play as 1st verse
The papers print his picture almost everywhere he goes
Richard Cory at the opera, Richard Cory at a show.
And the rumour of his parties and the orgies on his yacht!
Oh, he surely must be happy with everything he's got.
Chorus
3rd verse
---------
As before except last line
He freely gave to charity, he had the common touch,
And they were grateful for his patronage and thanked him very much,
So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:
D (once) G F
"Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head."
Chorus
On the last "Oh I wish that I could be" go up from the G to an A.
for the nice harmony
