[Verse 1]
Am E
Will someone please say the unsayable?
E7 Am
Will someone please tell me I'm wrong?
D7 Gmaj7
I live every day like a sad beast of prey
Cmaj7 F#m
For I have to appear to be strong
D
And that's wrong
E | Am | Esus4 E |
I'm too weak to be strong
[Verse 2]
Am E
Today I met with the generals
E7 Am
And the head of my secret police
D7 Gmaj7
Discussing conspiracies and prison facilities
Cmaj7 F#m
For opponents I can never release
D E
And there'll be no peace
| Am | Esus4 E |
Until they're released
[Middle 8]
C/E
Of course, I'm in league with the army
D/E
It's not like I've got any choice
C/E
They officially adore me and my father before me
D/E
But gunpoint has a firm voice
[Verse 3]
Am E
The joke is I'm not even a demagogue
E7 Am
Have you heard me giving a speech?
D7 Gmaj7
My facts are invented, I sound quite demented
Cmaj7 F#m
So deluded it beggars belief
D E
It would be such a relief
| Am | Esus4 E |
Not to give another speech
[Verse 4]
Am E
Can someone please say the impossible?
E7 Am
Crowds should be out on the street
D7 Gmaj7
I've lost any will to threaten or kill
Cmaj7 F#m
I'll be easy for you to defeat
D E
And any resistance I meet
| Am | Esus4 E |
I'll beat a retreat
[Middle 8]
C/E
I'd rather that you didn't shoot me
D/E
But I'd quite understand if you did
C/E
Watch out for the army, the generals will go barmy
D/E
At the thought of a takeover bid
[Verse 5]
Am E
Oh, please will somebody put me
E7 Am
Out of my misery?
D7 Gmaj7
This sad old dictator must sooner or later
Cmaj7 F#m
Flee so that you can be free
D E
If you get rid of me
| Am | Esus4 E | A | % |
We can all be free
