[C] [D]
[C] I [E] [D]
was born on the banks of the high money [C] river.
[D] The child of one stupid [Bm] steaming [C] night.
[A] [D] Boats roam [D] beneath the [C] sun.
What do [D] you think of me?
I'm [Bm] better left [C] alone.

[G] [D]
Said I met a holy [G] [D] man who said that he [G] knew the way.
[D] And he liked [G] showmans so my life won't [C] go [D] straight.
Take my [G] hand child now, the little boy don't you be afraid.
I'll make your [D] soul and walk on [F] water.
[C] [D]
Holy man, [C] you don't [D] understand.
The cuffs on me they run [C] much deeper.

Holy man, [C] righteous [D] man.
I've been shown the way.

Holy man, I tell you boy you play on terror I see.
Cause in [C] a land of [D]
evil trees.
God in my [G] [D] eyes, nights I [C] will never see.
Holy man, I tell you this word is that [C] I believe.

Come to think of it I do need your religion.
[C]
[D] Oh, oh, said I get away.
[C] Always, let me [D] find you.
Let me find my own way.
[D] Holy [C] man,
