Capo 1
Intro: C, C/G, Am, F
C C/G It's been years, he's been here
Am F and time just lingers and no one knows
C C/G He's got eyes, he's got ears
Am F He's got all of his fingers, and all of his toes
F Em His is a life of observation F Em Am Maybe one day he'll get to translate this information
F Em For twenty years, he hasn't spoken a word
F G He's been silent since the accident occured
C C/G While so many people taken tongues for granted
C/G F Taking the truth, finding ways to slant it
F C I know a man who'd know what to do
C C/G And so many people go day in and day out C/G F just dreaming of things they can bitch about
F C I know a man who'd know what to do
C C/G It's a dream, for him it's real
Am F but it never goes away and never will
C C/G He's in touch with what he feels
Am F Oh but he just can't say, "Maybe it's better still"
F Em His is a life of endless frustration
F Em Am He's got his pride, he's not exempt from humiliation
F Em Can't lift a finger to stop what's wrong
F G He can't lift a leg to dance to a Beatles song
C C/G While so many people taking spines for granted
C/G F Slither and squirm, taking what they're handed
F C I know a man who'd know what to do
C C/G And so many people go day by day
C/G F Sitting on their hands, constantly complaining
F C I know a man who'd know what to do
(instrumental)
C, C/G, Am, F
C C/G And so many content to exist like sheep
C/G F Never scratching the surface of themselves too deep F C I know a man who'd know what to do
C C/G And so many people like you and me
C/G F Never realizing what our lives could be
F C I know a man who'd know what to do
