[Intro]
Am G C

Am G C

Am G C

Am G C

[Versetto]
Am G C
Bring me a glass of water
Am G C
To wash the dirt from my throat
Am G C
I've been wandering my whole life out there
Am G C
Help me out of my coat
Am G C
This water's as clear as crystal
Am G C
We should thank the Lord for that
Am G C
Sit you down and hear my story
Am G F
Find somewhere for my hat
Am G C
A barkeep takes a stranger's hat
Am G C
And finds a vacant hook
Am G C
Turns back towards the traveller
F
His right hand on an old black book
[Ritornello]
Am G Dm
The holy Book of Numbers
Dm G Am
I take it's something that you've read?
Am G Dm
The long search in the wilderness
Dm G F
For a place to lay my head
[Versetto]
Am G C
So many parables in the scriptures
Am G C
But this one I'm doomed to tell
Am G C
For I stormed the gates of Heaven
Am G C
To find myself in Hell
Am G C
This is my lonely mission
Am G C
To wake the world up to its fate
Am G C
To dismantle my own invention
Am G F Dm
For the hour is getting late
[Ritornello]
Am G Dm
This holy Book of Numbers
Dm G Am
As we walk through the shadow of death
Am G Dm
Tell me, are you listening, boy
Dm G Am
Or am I just wasting my breath?
Am G C
There are fools in the courts of power
Dm G Am
While I've walked through this vale of bitter tears
Am G C
At the mercy of recording angels
Dm G F
For three score and twenty-five years
[Outro]
Am G C
The barkeep gets up from the table
Am G C
To fill up another glass
Am G C
He turns around to find an empty chair
Am G C
All that's left is the name in his hat
