A    G  D A
So I told him
A    G  D A
that He'd better
A        C                 G
shut his mouth and do his job like a man
       E                 A
And he answered, "listen father,
A       G  D  A
I will never
A    G  D   A
kill another.
A              C
He thinks he's better
          G
than his brother that died.
         F#                       G
What the hell does he think he is doing,
       E
to his father
                    A
who brought him up right?

A    D  E A
Tell the jailer
A    D  E A
not to bother
A        C                 G
with his meal of bread and water today.
         F#                       G
He is fasting 'til the killing's over.
A    G  D   A
He's a martyr,
A    G    D      A
He thinks he's a prophet
A        C                 G
But he's a coward, he's just playing a game.
         F#               G
He can't do it, he can't change it
           E                        A
It's been going on for ten thousand years,

A    G  D  A
Tell the people
A    G  D  A
they are safe now.
A        C                 G
Hunger stopped him, he lies still in his cell.
         E                   A
Death has gagged his accusations.
A    G   D   A
We are free now,
A    G   D   A
We can  kill now,
A      C
We can hate now
G
Now we can end the world.
         F#
We're not guilty,
        G
He was crazy
          E                             A
And it's been going on for ten thousand years.

And if you lose, you've only wasted your life.
