Words and Music by Freddie Mercury

Somebody to Love piano chords for the Five Live version, transcribed by Shane McDonald / Shane’s Queen Site

Back to the Main Chords & Tab Page

These are the piano chords to the Queen song Somebody to Love but this is the ‘Five Live’ version as performed at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert in 1992 by the late George Michael. The Somebody to Love Five Live version is very similar to the album version of Somebody to Love. The most obvious change to the song is a key change, from Ab to G (down 1 semi-tone). The chords to the original Queen album version of Somebody to Love from A Day at the Races is linked at the bottom of this page.

Somebody to Love Lyrics

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(take a look at yourself)
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what you’re doing to me

I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can’t get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody), somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work ’til I ache my bones
At the end (at the end of the day) I take home (takes home) my hard-earned pay all
(goes home on his own) on my own

I go down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray (praise the Lord)
‘Til the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody (somebody), somebody (please)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

(he works hard) everyday (everyday)
I try, and I try, and I try

But everybody wants to put me down
They say I’m goin’ crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense (he’s got)
I got nobody left to believe in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, Lord
Somebody (somebody), somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing)
I’m OK, I’m alright (he’s alright, he’s alright)
I ain’t gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
One day (someday) I’m gonna be free, Lord!

(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me
(Find me somebody to love)
Find
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love, love, love)
Find me, find me
(Find me somebody to love)
Somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
(Somebody find me, somebody find me somebody to love)

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, somebody, somebody
(Find me somebody to love)
Somebody, somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me, find me, find me
(Find me somebody to love)
Ooh, somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, find me, find me somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
Anybody, anywhere, anybody, find me somebody to love
Love, love, love, love
Find me, find me, find me, yeah
