I came upon a butcher,
         A
he was slaughtering a lamb,
E
I accused him there
       B7
with his tortured lamb.
          E
He said "Listen to me, child,
Continues after the ad
A
I am what I am
E        B7               A
and you, you are my only son."

/ E /

E
Well, I found a silver needle,
A
I put it into my arm.
E
It did some good,
B7
did some harm.
E
But the nights were cold
       A
and it almost kept me warm,
E    B7                A
how come the night is long?

/ E /

E
I saw some flowers growing up
            A
where that lamb fell down;
              E
was I supposed to praise my Lord,
                 B7
make some kind of joyful sound?
           E
He said, "Listen, listen to me now,
A
I go round and round
E         B7               A
and you, you are my only child."

/ E /

E
Do not leave me now,
        A
do not leave me now,
E
I'm broken down
B7
from a recent fall.
E
Blood upon my body
    A
and ice upon my soul,
E            B7              A
lead on, my son, it is your world.
