I am your noble savage, but to me I am a man.
    F      G     C    C    F       G     C  Am Am F Am Am Am G G C
The father of my sons, the servant of my woman.

    F      G       C   C       F    G      C   C
And I have made my bow, I take only what I need.

I am the maker of fire, and the planter of seed.

    F      G          C        C       F     G        C         C
And I have learned an order in things, and I teach my children.

For each seed a star, for each son a generation.

F         G        C      C F          G      C      C
I have no time for freedom, barefoot I run in forest leaves.
         F    G  C     C            F      G      C  Am Am F Am Am Am G G C
There is pain in birth, but for the dead I do not grieve.

I have cut marks on my body, there is beauty in pain.
      F   G      C         F             G  C  Am  Am F Am Am Am G G C
And a sadness in joy, like death and the sunset.
 
[Verse 6]
F        G       C      C   F       G    C     C
I am the willing heathen, I worship everything.
       F       G           C            F          G      C Am  Am F Am Am Am G G C
I will add new words to my language and write them on the wind.

         F   G     C              F   G     C   Am Am F Am Am Am G G C
I am the worker of magic, and the fearer of storms.
 
[Verse 8]
F        G         C    C  F      G         C        C
I am the writer in sand. I am the first and last man.
    F          G        C      C        F       G      C  Am
And if I could read the future, I would ask you not to come.
