Its Tough To Be A God

For so long I looked for a half decent chord sheet for this. Hope you don’t need to go through the same thing Enjoy! [VERSE 1] (ELTON) i hardly think i’m qualified to come across all sanctified i just don’t cut it with the cherubim the town’s already on it’s knees being worshipped is a breeze i barely know the words to any hymns            [VERSE 2] (RANDY) listen if we don’t comply with the locals’ wishes i can see us being sacrificed or stuffed let’s be gods the perks a great el dorado on a plate local feeling should not be rebuffed                [CHORUS 1] (ELTON) it’s tough to be a god tread where mortals have not trod be deified when really you’re a sham be an object of devotion be the subject of psalms it’s a terrifying notion all those prayers and those salaams any normal man would bridle if he’s forced to be an idol? and a normal man’s exactly what i am! [VERSE 3] (ELTON) all the same it’s pretty clear the scoundrels don’t keep much up here they must have zillions under lock and key but gods can force them to unleash enough to make us nouveau riche beyond our wildest dreams so follow me!                  [VERSE 4] (RANDY) can’t you see i won’t relax if religious maniacs tell me i’m all-powerful and sublime how can i be their belief when i’m lying through my teeth? why don’t we just say "some other time"?                [CHORUS 2] (ELTON) it’s tough to be a god but if you get the peoples’ nod count your blessings keep ’em sweet that’s my advice be nirvana be salvation be all things to all men butter up your congregation every sunday score a ten the alternative is dire simply frying pan to fire so sign up two new gods for paradise paradise!
