	Am
	Cain slew Abel;

Seth knew not why.

	Dm
	For if the.

Children of Israel,

	Am
Were to multi-	ply;

	E7
Why must	any of,

	Am	E7	Am
The	child-	ren	die?

So he asked the Lord,

	E
	And the Lord said;

Chorus 1:

	Am	E7
	Man means	nothing,

	Am	E7	Am	A7
He	means	less to	me,

	Dm
	Than the lowliest,

	A7
	Cactus flower,

	Dm	A7	Dm
Or the	humblest	Yucca	tree.

	Am	E7
He	chases round this	desert,

	Am
'Cos he	thinks,

	C7	F7
That's	where I'll	be;

	Am	E7	Am	E7
	That's why I	love man-	kind.

	Am	E7
	I recoil in	horror,

	Am	E7	Am	A7
From the	foul-	ness of	thee.

	Dm	A7
	From the squalor and the	filth,

	Dm	A7	Dm
	And the	mise-	ry.

	Am	E7
How we	laugh up in here in	heaven,

	Am	C7	F7
At the	prayers you	offer	me;

	Am	E7	Am	E7
	That's why I	love man-	kind.

Verse 2:

	Am
	The Christians and the Jews,

Were having a jamboree,

	Dm
	The Buddhists and the Hindu's,

	Am
Joined on	satellite TV.

They picked their,

	E7
	Four greatest priests,

	Am	E7	Am
And	they be-	gan to	speak;

They said;

	Am
	"Lord, a plague is on the world,

Lord, no man is free,

	Dm
The	temples that we built to you,

	Am
Have	tumbled into the sea.

	E7
Lord, if you won't take	care of us;

	Am
Won't you	please,

	E7	Am
Please	let us	be?"

	Am	E
And the	Lord said,

	C	E
And the	Lord said;

Chorus 2:

	Am
	I burn down your cities,

	E7	Am	A7
How	blind you must	be.

	Dm	A7
	I take from you your	children,

And you say;

	Dm	A7	Dm
	"How	blessed are	we".

	Am	E7
	You all must be	crazy,

	Am	C7	F7
To	put your	faith in	me;

	Am	E7	Am
	That's why I	love man-	kind;

	Dm
You	really need me,

	Am	E7	Am
	That's why I	love man-	kind.
