Dm                                
I am just an aging drummer-boy, 

         C
and in the wars I used to play

         Bb                     
And I've called a tune to many a 

         Dm
torture session.

Dm                                
Now they say I am a war criminal, 

          C
and I'm a-fading away.

armies and my crooks

D        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

Emsus2                 Em
