Biography:
George Michael (born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou on June 25, 1963 in East Finchley, London, England died on December 25, 2016 in Goring Oxfordshire, England) was an English pop musician of English/Greek Cypriot ancestry. Michael began his career by forming a band called The Executive together with his best friend Andrew Ridgeley, a fellow pupil at Bushey Meads School, though it did not survive for long.
It wasn't until he formed the duo Wham!, working together again with Ridgeley, in 1981 that he achieved success.

[Intro]
| A | Amaj7 | A7 | Dm/A | Dm/A G/A |
| A | Amaj7 | A7 | Dm/A | Dm/A G/A |
[Verse]
A Amaj7
These are the days of the open hand
A7
They will not be the last ... look around now
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ A ]
These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
[Verse]
A Amaj7
This is the year of the hungry man
A7
Whose place is in the past
Dm/A
Hand in hand with ignorance
Dm/A G/A [ Bm ]
And legitimate excuses
[Bridge]
Bm Bbaug
The rich declare themselves poor
D/A
And most of us are not sure if we have too much
E/G# [ Bm ]
But we'll take our chances cause God's stopped keeping score
Bm Bbaug
I guess somewhere along the way
D/A
He must have let us all out to play
E/G# [ A ]
Turned his back and all God's children crept out the back door
[Chorus]
A Amaj7
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
A7
Hanging on to hope
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ A ]
When there is no hope to speak of
A Amaj7
And the wounded skies above
A7
Say it's much too much too late
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ A ]
Well maybe we should all be praying for time
[Interlude]
| A | Amaj7 | A7 | Dm/A | Dm/A G/A |
| A | Amaj7 | A7 | Dm/A | Dm/A G/A |
[Verse]
A Amaj7
These are the days of the empty hand
A7
Oh you hold on to what you can
Dm/A Dm/A G/A
And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
[Verse]
A Amaj7
This is the year of the guilty man
A7
Your television takes a stand
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ Bm ]
And you find that what was over there is over here
[Bridge]
Bm Bbaug
So you scream from behind your door
D/A
Say what's mine is mine and not yours
E/G#
I may have too much but I'll take my chances
E/G# [ Bm ]
Cause God's stopped keeping score
Bm Bbaug
And you cling to the things they sold you
D/A
Did you cover your eyes when they told you
E/G# [ A ]
That he can't come back because he has no children to come back for
[Chorus]
A Amaj7
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
A7
Hanging on to hope
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ A ]
When there is no hope to speak of
A Amaj7
And the wounded skies above
A7
Say it's much too much too late
Dm/A Dm/A G/A [ A ]
So maybe we should all be praying for time
