                     G       C
Saw the swing of the hammer
                       G     C
Heard the crack of the ball
                 G       C
Saw the tenement tumble
                 G     C  G-D
Saw the tenement fall
                    C
Saw the baby in the manger___
                           G    C  G  C
He was sleeping through it all


               G      C
Well, I read a story
                 G     C
About a man in a room
                     G          C
I guess he spoke his mind, but
                     G     C  G-D
I guess he spoke too soon
                             C
Well, he should've kept them guessing___
                          G     C  G  C
Instead of howling at the moon


                      G        C
Shoved my hands in my pockets
                  G     C
And I shuffled in time
                     G        C
Took my place at the back of
                 G     C  G-D
The unemployment line
                C
Standing like a statue___
              G      C  
Deaf dumb and blind
              G      C  
Deaf dumb and blind
