Cannibals Absent Elk
Cannibals by Absent Elk
[E]Where he grew up, the doors were locked
[G#m]And no one ever knew
[A]What went on behind those wooden wa[E]lls
The place that he called home[B]
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]Keep the cannibals away from [E]me[B]
[A]Keep the cannibals away[E] [B]
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 bite of shameless and polite
Chorus x2:
Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away
[C#m]Why would I roll up my sleeves
[B]For you to take it all from me?
[A]I'll say it[E] clear
[F#m]There's nothing for you [B]here
[C#m]Oh, I should I get on my knees
[B]For you to shake the rocking trees
[A]I've heard i[E]t all
[F#m]That double talk, and your smile, just wipe it off[B]
Chorus to end:
Keep the cannibals away from me
Keep the cannibals away
