by Tom Robinson


    E                             A7
I'm sorry if the soldiers have to hurt you Mr.Harris
    E                            A7
You haven't really left them any choice
     E                                  A7
This must be quite a trial, you haven't eaten for a while
  E                                 A7
I wonder whats the matter with your voice


       D               A                E
If you told us who you know it might be wiser
           D                  A                E
There's no need to knock your head against the wall
       D               A                E
If you told us who you know it might be wiser
  D                 A             B
I think it might be better for us all


    E                        A7
I'm sorry but we simply dont believe you Mr.Harris
      E                                  A7
We've seen you with these people several times
     E                          A7
We appreciate your pains but we need to know their names
   E                                          A7
It would really would take a load off all our minds


       D               A
If you told us who you know....


     E                               A
That fellow, Charlie Jones, you were detained with Mr.Harris
    E                                     A
I'm afraid we've found him hanging in his cell
         E                            A
So we've asked your little brother to assist with our enquiries
  E                            A
I hope he wont be difficult as well


           E                              A
You know I think it might be wiser if you told us
         E                              A
Then you have my word of honour you can go
       E                               A
I dont mean to twist your arm, we dont mean you any harm
         E                              A
But it's really quite important that we kmow


       D               A
If you told us who you know.....


Alright sergeant carry on.
