[Intro verse]
D                                        Cadd9
 I was born on the banks off a hot muddy river
D                               Cadd9
 The child of one stupid steamy night
D                         Cadd9
 Born to roam beneath the sun
            D                            Cadd9    D
What do you think of me, I’m better left alone

D5            C5   G5      D5           C5       G5
 Said I met a holy man who said that he knew the way
D5                C5      G5    D5        F5  C5
 And he’d like to show me so my life won't go astray
D5       C5        G5   D5                    C5      G5
 Take my hand child now  little boy don’t you be afraid
D5              C5       G5      D5    F5    C
 I’ll take your soul and walk on water

[Chorus]
D       Cadd9
 Holyman,  you don’t understand
D                             Cadd9
 The cuts on me they run much deeper
D             Cadd9
 Holyman, you righteous man
D                                   Cadd9
 I’ve been shown the way a thousand times
          D
Not one a keeper

D5                      C5       G5         D5      C5      G5
 Older man he said I’ll tell you boy you’ve planted rotten seeds
D5                C5   G5           D5      F5  C5
 And in a land of happiness they’ll grow us evil trees
D5      C5  G5  D5                  C5    G5
 Guided minds,   and eyes that will never see
D5            C5    G5      D5              F5  C5
 Holyman I’ll tell you just what it is that I believe

[Chorus]
D       Cadd9
 Holyman,  you don’t understand
D                             Cadd9
 The cuts on me they run much deeper
D             Cadd9
 Holyman, you righteous man

D5                      C5      G5           D5        F5  C5

D5       C5        G5            D5                      C5      G5

D5                     C5         G5     D5    F5  C5
