Dire Straits, The Man's Too Strong (1985)
^{Key: :[D#m] (w: Mark Knopfler)}

INTRO: [D#m] [C#] [G#/B] [D#m] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
I am [D#m] just an aging drummer boy, and in the [C#] wars I used to play
And I've [G#/B] called the tune too many a torture [D#m] session
Now they [D#m] say I am a war criminal, and I'm [C#] fading away
[G#/B] Father, please hear my conf-[D#m]-ession

BRIDGE 1:
I have [G#] legalised robbery, [D#] called it belief.
I have [G#] run with the money, I have [D#] hid like a thief
[G#] rewritten history with [D#] army's of my crooks.
Invented [C#] memories [A#m], I did [D#] burn all those books

CHORUS:
And I can [D#m] still hear his laughter,
And I can [C#] still hear his [Fm] song.
The man's too big, the man's too [D#] strong [C#]
[D#] [C#] // [C#m] [G#] // [G#m] [D#]

BRIDGE 2:
Well I've [G#] tried to be meek, and I've [D#] tried to be mild
But I [G#] spat like a woman, and I [D#] sulked like a child.
I have [G#] lived behind walls; that have [D#] made me alone,
Striven for [C#] peace [A#m], which [D#] I never have known

CHORUS:
And I can [D#m] still hear his laughter,
And I can [C#] still hear his [Fm] song.
The man's too big, the man's too [D#] strong [C#]
[D#] [C#] // [C#m] [G#] // [G#m] [D#]
