Intro:
Dm C
I am just an aging drummer-boy, and in the wars I used to play
. Bb Dm
And I’ve called a tune to many a torture session.
Dm C
Now they say I am a war criminal, and I’m a-fading away.
Bb
Father, please hear my confession.
G D
I have legalized robbery and called it belief
G D
I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief
G D
I have rewritten history with my armies and my crooks
D C Am D
Invented memories, I did burn all the books
. Dm C Am
And I can still hear his laughter, and I can still hear his song
. Em D C D C C G
The man’s too big, the man’s too strong
G D
Well I have tried to be meek And I have tried to be mild
G D
But I spat like a woman And sulked like a child
G D
I have lived behind walls That have made me alone
D C Am D
Striven for peace Which I have never known
. Dm C Am
And I can still hear his laughter, and I can still hear his song
. Em D C D C C G
The man’s too big, the man’s too strong
G D
Well the sun rose on the courtyard And they all did hear him say
G D
‘You always were a Judas But I got you anyway
G D
You may have got your silver But I swear upon my life
D C Am D
Your sister gave me diamonds And I gave them to your wife’
. Dm C Am
Oh father please help me For I have done wrong
. Em D C D C C G
The man’s too big, the man’s too strong
