Tom: Em
Em G 4x
[Verse 1]
Em A C Em
Poet, priest, and visionary rallied to the call
G Bm Em
The will of humankind defied them all
Em A C Em
Coveting the gold and silver idols of success
G Bm Em
Only to perpetuate duress
[Interlude]
Em G 4x
[Verse 2]
Em A C Em
Every king's assassin waiting silently at bay
G Bm Em
Counting down until his holy day
Em A C Em
Artifacts of ancient wisdom buried in the sand
G Bm Em
Hastily upturned to clear the land
[Chorus]
G Bm
Now I ain't going to claim to be the second son
G
I love my follow man
C
But I hate what he's become
Em A Em C Em
And it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on
[Interlude]
Em G 4x
[Verse 3]
Em A C Em
To calculate the universe leads further from divine
G Bm Em
But can we comprehend all that we find?
Em A C Em
Artifacts of ancient wisdom buried in the sand
G Bm Em
Neglected and denied by us again
[Chorus]
G Bm
Now I ain't going to cast the first stone, you see
G
I love my follow man
C
And I love what he could be
Em A Em C Em
But it goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on
