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              Em
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
