Chord/Tab song: Cannibals

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
