God Help You Dumb Boy

Am
Dumb boy, what do you say?
    F                 Am
My eyes are lazy, my skin's a flake
Am
But what good can you do?
       F              Am
Well, not so much as men like you
Am
Dumb boy, what do you see?
     E                 Am
The lesser men coming down on me
Am
Tell us, what will you do?
     Dm               Am
I'll let my axe come down on you!

E
  Here by the water, I'll raise my 
kingdom
G
  I'll find my foliage
F
  I'll raise my arms and
E
  I'll say my name with, with 'glory
 be's' and
E
  Here by the water! I'll raise my 
temple
G                    F           
  Where no man shall be as small 
   E
as me!

       E                           
But I can't load the bullets and I 
 Dm            E
can't use the gun
                             Dm  
Can't have no children so I won't 
         E
have a son
                         Dm        
Can't wake up early so nothing will
  E
 grow
I'll just lay on my lands 'til the 
 Dm        E
sun hangs low,
          Dm        E
'Til the sun hangs low!
      Dm                         
I'll lay on my lands 'til the sun 
        E
hangs low!

Am
Dumb boy, you've done wrong
        F                 Am
Now by what right do you good men 
judge?
Am
You are in the contempt of man
      F                Am
Then gag my mouth and bind my hands!
Am
Dumb boy, what are you seeing?
          E                        
Ha, your guns they are empty, your 
 Am
rope it is frayed!
Am
Tell us, what did you say?
          Dm            Am
In your empty chest, my axe I will 
lay!

Your steps are heavy,

you will not save me
