Tuning: Standard [Intro] |---------------------------| A|--3--------6-----3---------| E|-----4--6-----1-----1--3---| The young man stands on the edge of his porch The days were short and the father was gone There was no one in the town and no one in the field This dusty barren land had given all it could yield [Verse 1] I’ve been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen And I have no idea where else my heart could have been I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill And now I am sure my heart can never be still So collect your courage and collect your horse And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse [Chorus 1] Seal my heart and brake my pride I’ve nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide Align my heart my body my mind To face what I’ve done and do my time [Verse 2] Well you are my accuser now look in my face Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace So one man has and another has not How can you love what it is you have got When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor? Liars and thieves you know not what is in store There will come a time I will look in your eye You will pray to the God that you always denied The I’ll go out back and I’ll get my gun I’ll say "You haven’t met me I am the only son" Seal my heart and brake my pride I’ve nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide Align my heart my body my mind To face what I’ve done and do my time (Instrumental Bridge) It is simply double time what you have been playing. (8th notes? - I am just beginning Music Theory) |---------------------------| A|--3--------6-----3---------| E|-----4--6-----1-----1--3---| [Chorus] Seal my heart and brake my pride I’ve nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide Align my heart my body my mind To face what I’ve done and do my time [Instrumental Bridge Again] (Give it a good thump!) (8th notes) G|---------------------------| (x8) A|--3--------6-----3---------| E|-----4--6-----1-----1--3---| [Outro] Well yes sir yes sir yes it was me I know what I’ve done cause I know what I’ve seen I went out back and I got my gun I said "You haven’t met me I am the only son"

La chanson évoque des thèmes de perte, de douleur et de lutte pour la survie dans un monde impitoyable. Un jeune homme se trouve confronté à l'injustice et à la désolation après avoir perdu sa terre et sa dignité. Il ressent un profond désespoir, mais aussi une détermination à faire face aux conséquences de ses actes, soulignant le conflit entre la richesse et la pauvreté qui l'entoure. Son cœur est emprisonné par la honte et la colère, et il aspire à la réconciliation avec lui-même tout en réclamant justice. Le contexte fait référence à des périodes de crise, comme la Grande Dépression, où de nombreuses personnes ont dû faire face à des défis insurmontables, perdant leurs biens et leur stabilité. Cela évoque également un sentiment d’abandon face aux forces qui oppriment les plus faibles, mélangé à une lutte intérieure et un désir ardent de se libérer de cette souffrance.
