Cannibals by Absent Elk
Submitted by Henning

E MajorE
Where he grew up, the doors were locked

G# minorG#m
And no one ever knew

A augmentedA                 E MajorE
What went on behind those wooden walls

                  BB
The place that he called home

The quiet type, tainted eyes
He paid for being kind
Most aren't when he'll never speak his mind
To say, "I watch the days go by"

Chorus x2:

A augmentedA              E MajorE    BB
Keep the cannibals away from me

A augmentedA              E MajorE    BB
Keep the cannibals away

Come this way someone say
From down behind the crowd
Begging through the arrogance
And a ray between the clouds

He found his love in an empty cup
He worked his own way up
Everybody's out to get a cut
A augmentedA bite of shameless and polite

Chorus x2:
Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away

C# minorC#m
Why would I roll up my sleeves

BB
For you to take it all from me?

A augmentedA     E MajorE
I'll say it clear

F# minorF#m           BB
There's nothing for you here

C# minorC#m
Oh, I should I get on my knees

BB
For you to shake the rocking trees

A augmentedA      E MajorE
I've heard it all

F# minorF#m                        BB
That double talk, and your smile, just wipe it off

Chorus to end:
Keep the cannibals away from me

THE END!
