Roger Taylor
Keep Yourself Alive
[Intro: Freddie Mercury]
(Taking off)

[Verse 1: Freddie Mercury]
I was told a million times of all the troubles in my way
Mind you grow a little wiser, little better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers and I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started, bread and butter for a smile
Well, I sold a million mirrors in a shop in Alley Way
But I never saw my face in any window any day
Now they say your folks are telling you, “Be a superstar”
But I tell you, just be satisfied and stay right where you are

[Chorus: Freddie Mercury]
Keep yourself alive, yeah, keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and-a money, honey, you'll survive

[Verse 2: Freddie Mercury]
Well, I've loved a million women in a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays
Give me everythin' I need to feed my body and my soul
And I'll grow a little bigger, maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on tryin' and get better every day
But if I crossed a million rivers and I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started, same as when I started
[Chorus: Freddie Mercury]
Keep yourself alive, come on, keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and-a money, honey, you'll survive (shake)

[Drum Solo]

[Interlude: Freddie Mercury]
(Ow!)

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Freddie Mercury]
Keep yourself alive, whoa, keep yourself alive
Oh, take you all your time and-a money to keep me satisfied

[Bridge: Roger Taylor & Brian May]
Do you think you're better every day?
No, I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave

[Chorus: Freddie Mercury]
Keep yourself alive, come on, keep yourself alive
You take your time and take my money, keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive, come on, keep yourself alive
All you people, keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive, come on, come on, keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and-a money to keep me satisfied
Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
All you people, keep yourself alive
[Outro: Freddie Mercury]
Take you all your time and money, honey, you will survive
Keep you satisfied, keep yourself alive…
