Bm
That's enough, my man, it's time to clap our hands.

A
Call the papers up tomorrow, say we did the best we can.

D
Cause our doctor's in the hospital, the poet just laid down.

G
There's one good man I know, and he can't talk right now.

Bm                          Em                 G                         A
I'd like to hear what you'd say to me if I was bulletproof and free again.

Bm                          Em                             G                   A
Or what you'd shout if I was dead in the ground, and buried under another name?

Would you cry, cry 'cause I was gone?

Would you spit and hiss and curse my name,

And embarrass me to the other graves?

Now who you think I am? Worse than all the rest?

That's what I'll be now, just like no one said.

Did anybody see that? There's a crack right down my head.

But mama, how they'll cheer for us, while the blood drips down our legs.

Bm                            Em                                G                         A
I'd like to know if you could see through the soul like I could see to your soul back then.

And reach your hands through all the hurt and defenses, would you still try if you knew I was gone?

Or would you talk about if I loved her now?

D
