The Mans Too Strong Chords

Dm C Bb Dm  2x
 
     Dm                         
I am just an aging drummer boy, 
           C
and in the wars I used to play
         Bb                                Dm
And I've called the tune 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
 
       G                  D
I have legalized robbery, called it belief
       G                          D
I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief
G                       D
Re-written history with armies and my crooks
         C      Am       D
Invented memories, I did burn all the books
 
          Dm
And I can still hear his laughter,
          C              Em
And I can still hear his song
              Em
The man's too big;
              D C   D C  Cm G
The man's too strong
 
Gm  D
 
       G                        D
Well I tried to be meek, 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
            C    Am        D
Striven for peace, which I never have known
 
          Dm
And I can still hear his laughter,
          C              Em
And I can still hear his song
              Em
The man's too big;
              D C   D C  Cm G
The man's too strong
 
Gm  D
 
         G                          
Well the sun rose on the courtyard, 
         D
and they all did hear him say
     G                         D
"You always was a Judas, but I got you anyway
    G                         
You may have got your silver, 
      D
but I swear upon my life
                    C       Am
Your sister gave me diamonds, 
      D
and I gave 'em to your wife"
 
                  Dm
Oh father, please help me,
    C           Em
For I have done wrong
              Em
The man's too big;
              D C   D C  Cm G
The man's too strong
