Michael used double drop D tuning for this song (from chatting with Mick's brother Christopher, I've learned
that this was a favourite tuning of his) so both top and bottom E strings are tuned down a full step to D.
There are various hammer ons and pull offs for the main two chords throughout the song - Listen to the
recording links shared above if you want to try and replicate but anything close will get a similar sound but
feel free to play around with it as the tuning gives nice open/drone possibilities.

[Verse]
F Cm7 F Cm7 F Cm7 F Cm7
Man can be graceful, this much I know, they say I'm aware of one big thing but I'm not so slow
F Cm7 F Cm7
I used to live in a place where the people wore red
F Cm7 F Cm7
And they howled and screamed and blew their horns and they wished my family had never been born
Bb6 A7 A7sus4 A7 F Cm7 F Cm7
I left the day that my brother went down, and I headed in through the east side of town
F Cm7 F Cm7
I never heard a harsh word as I made my way, The people gave each other the time of day
F Cm7 F Cm7
I found this place in the middle of the night, when all was quiet and it felt just right
Bb6 A7 A7sus4 A7 F Cm7 F Cm7
I made my way underground, I felt safe and I felt sound
F Cm7 F Cm7
Then one day, the whole world came, They stood around the field and they spoke about the game
F Cm7 F Cm7
One at a time they made their way, Then the lights came on, it was as bright as day
Bb6 A7 A7sus4 A7 F Cm7 F Cm7
There on the field to my surprise, right in front of my very eyes
F Cm7 F Cm7
The people had come to town
F Cm7 C/F Ebaug/F C/F Ebaug/F
but they had no horses and there were no hounds
Bb6 A7 A7sus4 A7
They began to dance and I heard and old man sing
Bb6 A7sus4 A7 N.C.
and there on the field what ap-peared to be
F Cm7 F Cm7 F
A working model of the one big thing, they could dance and sing, a working model of the one big thing
Cm7 F Cm7 F Cm7 F Cm7
Men can be graceful, this much I know
