In the [A]corner of the morning in the past [E] [E7] [E]
I would [A]sit and blame the master first and [E]las[E7]t [E]
All the [G]roads were straight and [A]narrow
And the [G]prayers were small and [A]yellow
and the [G]rumour spread that [G#]I was aging [E]fast[E7] [E]
Then I [A]ran across a [C#m]monster who was [F#m]sleeping by a [D]tree
And I [F]looked and frowned and the [F#]monster was [A]me [G] [E] [E7] [E] [E7] [E]

Well I [A]said hello and I said hello [E] [E7] [E]
And I [A]asked why not and I replied I don't know [E] [E7] [E]
So we [G]asked a simple [A]blackbird who was [G]happy as can [A]be
And he [G]laughed insane and [G#]quipped Kahil Gib[E]ran [E7] [E]
So I [A]cried for all the [C#m]others till the [F#m]day was nearly [D]through
For I [F]realised that [F#]Gods a young [A]man too [G] [E] [E7] [E] [E7] [E]

SOLO: [E]

So I [A]said so long and I waved bye bye [E] [E7] [E]
And I [A]smashed my soul and traded my mind [E] [E7] [E]
Got [G]layed by a young [A]bordello I was [G]vaguely half a[A]sleep
For which my [G]reputation [G#]swept back home in [E]drag [E7] [E]
And the [A]moral of this [C#m]magic spell ne[F#m]gotiate my [D]hide
When [F]God did take my [F#]logic for a [A]ride [G]
Riding a [E]long[E7] [E] [E7] [E]

He [D]swallowed his pride and puckered his lips [C] [G]
And [D]showed me the leather belt round his hips [C] [G]
my [D]knees were shaking my cheeks aflame [C]
He [G]said you'll [D]never go down to the Gods again
Turn around [C]go [G]back

He [G]struck the ground a cavern appeared
And I [A]smelt the burning pit of fear
We [G]crashed a thousand yards below
I said [D]do it again do it again
