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

Emsus2 Em D C D C

The man's too big, the man's too strong

For chords, play the Dm, D, C, Em, Am and G as open. Play the Bb in 1st
