Verse 1:
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
Thus Swedenborg boasts that what he writes is new; tho' it is only the
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
Contents or Index of already publish'd books;A man carried a
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
monkey about for a show, & because he was a little wiser than the monkey,...
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
grew vain, and conciev'd himself as much wiser than seven men.


Refrain 1:
Chord diagramG minorGm    Chord diagramFF   Chord diagramD#D#          Chord diagramFF
It is so with Swedenborg; he shows the folly of
Chord diagramG minorGm    Chord diagramFF   Chord diagramD#D#          Chord diagramFF
churches & exposes hypocrites, till he imagines that all are
Chord diagramG minorGm    Chord diagramFF   Chord diagramD#D#          Chord diagramFF
religious, & himself the single one on earth that ever broke a
Chord diagramG minorGm    Chord diagramFF   Chord diagramD#D#          Chord diagramFF
net... Now hear a plain fact;


Verse 2:
Chord diagramB minorBm         Chord diagramA augmentedA               Chord diagramG+G
Swedenborg has not written one new truth. And now hear
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
another he has written all the old falshoods. And now hear the
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
reason                    He conversed with Angels who are all
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
religious, & conversed not with Devils who all hate religion, for he was

Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
incapable thro' his conceited notions Thus Swedenborgs
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
writings are a recapitulation of all superficial, opinions,
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
and an analysis of the more sublime, but no further
Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramG+G
