A Man Of This World

Corneille

Biography:

Corneille (Cornelius Nyungura) is a rhythm and blues French singer. He was born on March 24, 1977, in Freiburg, Germany, to his parents who were completing their University studies there. He lived there for 6 years, until he was brought to live in his country of origin, Rwanda. He lived in a village for a short time, before moving to Rwanda's capitol, Kigali.

Corneille developed an interest in music early on, and it was an interest his father supported and encouraged.

A MAN OF THIS WORLD - Corneille
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus

Standard tuning

INTRO
C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11 C#maj7 = x46564
C#maj7 Aadd9 Aadd9-G#m-F#m-B Aadd9 = 577600
C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11 Badd11 = 799800
C#maj7 Aadd9 Aadd9-G#m-F#m

VERSE1
C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11
I was born black and free, I was born in the cold
C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11
You see cold was home to me, until I was told
C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11
I was really from the South, so I travelled closer to the sun
Aadd9 Badd11
But you see, flesh burning heat got me crossing the sea
C#maj7
Back to the cold again
F#m G#m A B
So here I am, here I am

CHORUS
C#9sus4-C#m Aadd9 Badd11 C#9sus4 = x44444
I'm a stranger, anywhere I run to
C#maj7 Aadd9
Yes I am a stranger
Badd11 E Aadd2 (Aadd2+ Aadd2++ Aadd2+)
And I just can't seem to find a race I could claim
G# Aadd9
The roots to my name, but who I am Add2 = 507600
Badd11 C#maj7 Aadd9 Badd11 Add2+ = 507605
Is a man of this world Add2++ = 507607

C#maj7 Aadd9 Aadd9-G#m-F#m11

VERSE2 (same chords as before)
This is my second shot, winter's smiling at me
I'm taking this shot to be all I can be
So the next place I stop will be the land of the free
A place where a million of colours and dreams dwell
Sounds like a place to me, where someone might understand
Just who I am, who I am

CHORUS (same as before until last chord)
I'm a stranger, anywhere I run to
Yes I am a stranger
And I just can't seem to find a race I could claim
The roots to my name, but who I am
Badd11 Aadd2
Is a man of this world


BRIDGE
C#maj7
Now there's this fuss about colour
Aadd2 C#maj7 B6/D# = x64444
And everybody needs to belong B11#9 = 767700
Aadd2 C#m-B6/D#-B11#9-E7 E7 = 076707
So take a minute to consider my perspective
Aadd9 G#
You see, black kicked me out once and white took me in
Aadd9 G#
But white looked at me once and nearly spat at my skin
F#m G#
I'm so confused, I'm so confused about who I should hate
B
I figure I'll just love them all

CHORUS x3 (same chords as first chorus, repeat)
I'm a stranger, anywhere I run to
Yes I am a stranger
And I just can't seem to find a race I could claim
The roots to my name, but who I am
Is a man of this world
