[Verse 1]
 Dm          C         Dm       C
Put to the sword by an impish whim
 Dm        C         F
Follow me now to a place we begin
  Dm            C        Dm      
Wrought with no anger, wrought 
       C
with no fear
 Dm        C        F
Devilish children playing here
 Dm        C          Dm     
Hidden in silence, below barren 
    C
waste
 Dm        C         F
Confusion hunger, am I still awake?

[Verse 2]
 Dm
Have I ever told you about my time 
machine
Sit you down I'll tell you 
C      A#        Dm
everywhere I've been
Dm
I have lived a long life, life 
extraordinaire
                           C    
Let me tell you about it, let me 
  A#        Dm
take you there
 Dm
Does it really matter, it's all in 
the mind
                           C    
Let me tell you about it, listen 
   A#         Dm
what you'll find


[Chorus]
G            Dm      G           Dm
I am not a preacher, I am but a man
 G           Dm      G           
You cannot imagine what I've seen
      Dsus2
 and done

[Verse 2]
Dm
I have lived a long life, I have 
seen the world
                           C       
I could tell you stories, hair will
   A#     Dm
 stand on end
  Dm
Stand among the steeples, stand upon
 the walls
                          C       
I have seen a god's face, I have 
A#     Dm
no disgrace
Dm
I have seen the gods cry, howling in
 the wind
                          C      
Where do I get started, when can 
A#   Dm
I begin


[Chorus]
G            Dm      G           Dm
I am not a preacher, I am but a man
 G           Dm      G           
You cannot imagine what I've seen
      A
 and done

[Bridge 1]
  Dm
Sleep with a light that is dark to 
my eyes
 A#         C           Dm
Father and sons give me all of your 
lies
  Dm
The brutal truth, that is never a 
lie
 A#          C            Dm
Full moon is out, as you look to the
 sky

Eerie collection, darkness is there

Wedded to danger, betrothed to 
despair
