Intro: C, C/G, Am, F


           C               C/G
It's been years, he's been here

              Am                
and time just lingers and no one 
  F
knows

          C             C/G
He's got eyes, he's got ears

                   Am              
He's got all of his fingers, and 
         F
all of his toes

 F                Em
His is a life of observation

 F                           Em   
Maybe one day he'll get to 
               Am
translate this information

 F                           Em
For twenty years, he hasn't spoken a
 word

 F                          G
He's been silent since the accident 
occured

 C                                 
While so many people taken tongues 
     C/G
for granted

 C/G                             
Taking the truth, finding ways to 
           F
slant it

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
  C


 C                                 
And so many people go day in and 
C/G
day out

 C/G                            
just dreaming of things they can 
              F
bitch about

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
 C


 C                              C/G
It's a dream, for him it's real

            Am                  
but it never goes away and never 
 F
will

 C                        C/G
He's in touch with what he feels

               Am               
Oh but he just can't say, "Maybe 
              F
it's better still"

 F                Em
His is a life of endless frustration

 F                            Em  
He's got his pride, he's not 
             Am
exempt from humiliation

 F                      Em
Can't lift a finger to stop what's 
wrong

 F                     G
He can't lift a leg to dance to a 
Beatles song

 C                                 
While so many people taking spines 
    C/G
for granted

 C/G                           
Slither and squirm, taking what 
                 F
they're handed

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
 C


 C                           C/G
And so many people go day by day

 C/G                               
Sitting on their hands, constantly 
            F
complaining

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
  C


(instrumental)

C, C/G, Am, F

 C                                
And so many content to exist like 
C/G
sheep

 C/G                           
Never scratching the surface of 
                     F
themselves too deep

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
 C


 C                              C/G
And so many people like you and me

 C/G                               
Never realizing what our lives 
      F
could be

 F                                 
I know a man who'd know what to do
 C
