I'm Dmjust and ageing drummer boy
And in the Cwars I used to play
And I've Bcalled the tune
To many a torture Dmsession
Now Dmthey say I am a war criminal
And I'm Cfading away
BFather please her my conDmfession
I have Glegalised robbery
DCalled it belief
I have Grun with the money
And Dhid like a theif
I have Gre-written history
With my Darmies and my crooks
DInvented CmemoriesAm7
I did Dburn all the books
And I can Dmstill hear his laughter
And I can Cstill hear his Emsong

Well I have Gtried to be meek
And I have tried to be mild
But I spat like a woman
And sulked like a child
I have lived behind wall
That have made me alone
Striven for peace
Which I never have known
And I can still hear his laughter
And I can still hear his song
The man's too big
The man's too strong
Well the sun rose on the courtyard
And they all did hear him say
'You always were a Judas
But I got you anyway
You may have got your silver
But I swear upon my life
Your sister gave me diamonds
And I gave them to your wife
Oh father please help me
For I have done wrong
The man's too big
The man's too strong
