I am just an aging drummer-boy, and in the wars I used to play
And I`ve called a tune to many a torture session.
Now they say I am a war criminal, and I`m a-fading away.
Father, please hear my confession.
I have legalized robbery and called it belief
I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief
I have rewritten history with my armies and my crooks
Invented memories, I did burn all the books
And I can still hear his laughter, and I can still hear his song
The man`s too big, the man`s too strong
etc.
For chords, play the Dm, D, C, Em, and as open. Play the in 1st
position. I play the Emsus2, and as:
