[Verse 1]
---------------------
Dm     Dm
  I am just an aging drummer boy
           C
And in the wars I used to play
         Bb
And I've calle the tune
                  Dm
To many a torture session
Now they say I am a war criminal
        C
And I'm fading away
Bb                        Dm
Father, please hear my confession

[Verse 2]
---------------------
       G
I have legalized robbery
D
Called it belief
        G
I have arun with the money
       D
I have hid like a thief
G
 Rewritten history
        D
With my armies and my crooks
         C
Invented memories
Am      D
  I did burn all the books

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
          Dm
And I can still hear his laughter
          C                  Em
And I can still hear his song
The man's too big
              D     C
The man's too strong

[Break (1)]
---------------------
D | C | Cm | G | Gm | D 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
         G
Well I've tried to be meek
       D
I have tried to be mild
      G
But I spat like a woman
      D
And I sulked like a child
       G
I have lived behind walls
          D
That have made me alone
            C
Striven for peace
Am        D
  Which I never have known

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
          Dm
And I can still hear his laughter
          C              Em
And I can still hear his song
The man's too big
              D     C
The man's too strong



[Verse 4]
---------------------
          G
Well, the sun rose on the courtyard
         D
And they all did hear him says
     G
"You always was a Judas
    D
But I got you anyway
    G
You may have got your silver
      D
But I swear upon my life
                    C
Your sister gave me diamonds
Am      D
  And I gave them to your wife"

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
       Dm
Oh, Father please help me
    C           Em
For I have done wrong
The man's too big
              D     C
The man's too strong

[Break (2)]
