Songs of the great god

Here come the new guys again
Em     F            G
         Humorless men

Let he who's without sin throw the first one like you said

Let anyone else throw the second, as long as it connects with your head

One summer
                     F
Then all of this is gone
C         Am
One more summer
     F        G 
Then no more swan

   But Carthage may rise again one day

          C                 
With the measure that you used

So shall it be measured to you
C      Am
So you say
F         G
And it's true

     C
One summer
                     F
Then all of this is gone
C         Am
One more summer
     F        G
Then no more swan
