Am     E7/G# Am     E7/G#  Am 
  Holy Moses I have been removed,
C                G/B     C               Esus4 E
 I have seen the spectre he has been here too 
C                    G/B
 Distant cousin from down the line
F                     Dm
 brand of people who ain't my kind 
F  F#dim   C   F6/G            C
 Ho--ly   Moses I have been removed


Am     E7/G# Am     E7/G#  Am 
  Holy Moses I have been deceived
C                  G/B               C            Esus4 E 
 now the wind has changed direction and I have to leave
C                   G/B 
 Won't you please excuse my frankness
          F            Dm 
but it's not my cup of tea
F  F#dim   C   F6/G            C 
 Ho--ly   Moses I have been removed


           C                        F
I'm going back to the border where my affairs
       C          F      C
where my affairs ain't abused
                 F                   D
I can't take anymore bad water been poisoned
                          G
from my head down to my shoes Oh!...


Am     E7/G# Am     E7/G#   Am 
  Holy Moses let us live in peace
C                 G/B           C               Esus4 E 
 Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease
C                   G/B 
 There's a man over there
F                 Dm 
 what's his color I don't care
F    F#dim  C      F6/G            C 
 He's my   brother let us live in peace
