Who robbed the cradle, who robbed the grave
C |F- |
Who`s the one that asked to be saved
Bb Bo7 |C- Db |Ab Gb Gb F |
No, wo-wo-wo no answer came
Eb |G-Bb |
I moved to the country that cried of shame
C |F- |
I left my home and found a name
Bb Bo7 |C- Db |Ab Gb Gb F |
No, wo-wo-wo nobody could explain
C-G C Eb G |Ab Bb Ab |
Have mercy, cried the blacksmith
C-G C Eb G |Ab Bb Ab |
How`re you gonna replace human hands
C-G C Eb G |Ab Bb Ab |
Found guilty, said the judge
C-G C Eb G |Ab |Ab(7) ||Eb |C |Eb |C ||
For not being in demand
verse:
Frozen fingers at the keyboard
Could this be the big reward
No, no answer came
Brought up everybody to see for themselves
They wouldn`t believe it from no one else
No, nobody could explain
chorus:
Dead tongue said the poet
To the daughter of burlesque
Cocteau, Van Gogh and Geronimo
C-G C Eb G |Ab |Ab(7) ||Eb |C |Eb |C ||
They used up what was left
|Bb(7) | | | |Bb(7) | | | Bo7 |
chorus:
Cry wolf, said the martyr
I don`t believe I`m alive
You`re the hero, said the mute
C-G C Eb G |Ab |Ab(7) ||Eb |C |Eb |C ||
And you`re bound to sur-vive
outro: |F7 |Bb7 |Eb(7) | | | | to fade
