he clapped with his hands

he summoned all of his joy when he laughed
D A
it suffered all of his joy when he cried .

and sometimes when he got into talkin’
G G#dim
man he could rattle on and on
D A D
he was a good man and now hes gone .
D
in war he was a tiger
D
when it was over , like a dove .
D G D
he summoned all of his strength in the climb .
D A
it suffered all of his strength in the fall .
D D7
sometimes when he got into fighting
G G#dim
man he could fight with you all day long .

he was a good man , and now he’s gone .
