Hamilton - Aaron Burr Sir Chords
[Hamilton] Pardon me. Are you Aaron Burr, sir?
Em
[Burr] That depends. Who’s asking?
C Am
[Ham]Oh, well, sure, sir I’m Alexander Hamilton, I’m at your service, sir
Em
I have been looking for you
[Burr]I’m getting nervous
C Am Em
[Ham]Sir, I heard your name at Princeton. I was seeking an accelerated course of study
C
when I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours. I may have punched him.
Am Em
It’s a blur, sir. He handles the financials?
[Burr] You punched the bursar?
C Am Em
[Ham] Yes! I wanted to do what you did. Graduate in two, then join the revolution.
He looked at me like I was stupid, I’m not stupid
C Am
So how’d you do it? How’d you graduate so fast?
Em
[Burr] It was my parents’ dying wish before they passed
C Am
[Ham]You’re an orphan. Of course! I’m an orphan. God, I wish there was a war!
Em
Then we could prove that we’re worth more than anyone bargained for
C Am
[Burr]Can I buy you a drink? [Ham] That would be nice
Em
[Burr] While we’re talking, let me offer you some free advice
C Am Em
[Burr] Talk less [Ham] What? [Burr] Smile more [Ham] Huh
C Am Em
[Burr]Don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for
C Am Em
[Ham] You can’t be serious [Burr] You wanna get ahead?
C Am Em
[Ham]Yes [Burr] Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead
C
[Laurens] Yo yo yo yo yo! What time is it?
Am
[Lau/Lafayette/Mulligan] Show time!
Em
[Burr] …like I said…
[Lau] Showtime! Showtime!
Cm
[Lau/Laf/Mull] Ooh! [Lau] Who are you? [Mull] Who are you? [Laf] Who are you?
Dm D# D
[Lau/Laf/Mull] Oooh, who is this kid? What's he gonna do?
