[Chorus]
G                  D
A wise man said to me
                        Em
Give all your love for free
                         C
And what you’re given in return
                       G
Is more than you can earn
                                   D
And when you’re ready to find real wealth
                       Em
Put another before yourself
                          C
Cause it’s lonely at the top
                          G
Until we all have got a spot
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
Hey now, would you like a seat?
          D
You been walking for a while
 
Do you need something to drink?
          Em
I’ve been waiting on a smile
 
Just to see what you would think
          C
It’s the closest thing to magic
 
That my eyes have ever seen
G
Oh lord, my life feels so complete
   D
A little bit of salt
 
With a little bit of sweet
      Em
And a whole lotta laughs
 
Wrapped up in family
          D
Yeah I’m stepping on the gas
 
Til my dreams aren’t in my sleep, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                  D
A wise man said to me
                        Em
Give all your love for free
                         C
And what you’re given in return
                       G
Is more than you can earn
                                   D
And when you’re ready to find real wealth
                       Em
Put another before yourself
                          C
Cause it’s lonely at the top
                          G
Until we all have got a spot
 
[Verse 2]
G
Oh boy, I’m turning up the heat
      D
Gotta keep it buzzin
 
Like a busy bee working in the street
        Em
Cause I find that nothing is the something
 
That I need to be complete
          C
Yeah, I’m rolling to the rhythm
 
Of a never ending beat, yeah
  G
OK, love is all you need
     D
Everybody says it but the doing’s incomplete
          Em
There’s a million lonely people that are ready to receive
         C
Don’t be afraid, there’s a person out there that you’re about to meet, yeah
 
[Bridge]
G
There’s not enough fancy things
D
Not enough gold or diamond rings
Em
No amount of money could ever buy
C
The evening glow or the nighttime sky
G
And when it all comes to an end
D
And all that’s left is love and friends
Em
And all the things you loved so much
D
Will always be a part of us
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                  D
A wise man said to me
                        Em
Give all your love for free
                         C
And what you’re given in return
                       G
Is more than you can earn
                                   D
And when you’re ready to find real wealth
                       Em
Put another before yourself
                          C
Cause it’s lonely at the top
                          G
Until we all have got a spot

Thank You! These chords seemed right to me but I've been trying to overcomplicate this by watching the Live Session. It seems like Mihali is playing the same chords, just differently a few times throughout the performance so it made it tricky to me to figure out. I'm 41 years old and have been playing for over half of my life, but learning by ear was never my strong suit. It's gotten better the past several years, but not where I should be. Anyway, Thanks again. I'm glad somebody got tabs up for this song this soon!
