Verse:
G                Gmaj7
We grow old, our hearts are dim
        Bm                 Em
But our minds are free, to fly where they will
     G                         Gmaj7
Your beauty is faded, you're a broken shell
     Bm                 Em                 G
It's only the weak that fall for your spell
 
Chorus:
                                  C      C/B    Am
You cannot control me no more Cleopatra, patra, patra
                                  C      C/B    Am
You cannot control me no more Cleopatra, patra, patra

It's time to move, to the next life
       Bm             Em
You'll be reborn as a beautiful child
       G                   Gmaj7
You'll turn the heads of a million men
     Bm           Em                 G
Lady Pharaoh, the jewel of the Nile
 
Chorus:
                                  C      C/B    Am
You cannot control me no more Cleopatra, patra, patra

You cannot control me no more Cleopatra, patra, patra

D               A       Em              G
All the wine we tasted, all the love we made
D                  A         Em             G
All the strumming lyres will decorate your grave
D            A       Em       G    B
All the ecstasy has gone gone gone away

The verse is incorrect. It should go like so: Open G5 (3 X 0 0 3 3), Gsus2 (3 X 0 2 3 3), Gmaj7 omit 5 (3 X 4 X 0 X), G6 omit 5 (3 X 2 X 0 X). So the whole time you're rooted on the G and just playing variations of it. Check out this live vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67HHksVeWxA

Great tab. The illustrations are confusing though- It's like UG thinks you want us to play half a step up, to combat being tuned half a step down. Hope that makes sense.
