Jorge Rivera-Herrans - Polyphemus

[Intro]
— ODYSSEUS —
Abm
Over here!

[Verse 1]
— POLITES, (EURYLOCHUS) —
Abm/E Gb
Look at all this food, look at all these sheep
Gb/Eb Abm
I can’t believe this cave has all this for us to keep
Abm/E Gb
(I’ve gotta hand it to you both, this is quite the treat)
Gb/Eb Abm
(There are enough sheep here to feed the entire fleet)

[Verse 2]
— ODYSSEUS, (POLYPHEMUS) —
Abm/E Gb Gb/Eb Abm
It’s almost too perfect, too good to be true
Abm/E Gb Gb/Eb
Why would the lotus eaters pass up on all this food?
N.C.
(Who are you?)

[Interlude]
— ODYSSEUS —
Ab5
Hey there, We’re just travellers, We come in peace

[Verse 3]
— POLYPHEMUS *play only bass notes* —
Ab Eb Eb Eb E
You killed my sheep
Ab B B Db Bb
My favouritе sheep
Ab Eb Eb Gb E
What gives you the right to deal a pain so deep
Ab B B Db Bb
Don’t you know that pain you sow is pain you rеap?

[Chorus 1]
— POLYPHEMUS —
Abm
Time to drink
Gb7
Your blood over where you stand
Emaj7
Your life now is in my hand, before I’m done
Dbm7 Eb7 Abm
You will learn that it’s not so fun to take
Gb7
You came to my home to steal
Emaj7
But now you’ll become my meal, a trade, you see?
N.C.
Take from you like you took from me

[Bridge]
— ODYSSEUS, (POLYPHEMUS) —
Abm
There’s been a misunderstanding
Abm
We never came here to steal
E
But now that I see we’ve done some damage
Dbm7 Eb7
Maybe you and I could make a deal
Abm
I’ll give you our finest treasure
Abm
So long as we leave alive
E Dbm7
You can keep the world’s best tasting wine
N.C.
(Wine?)

[Chorus 2]
— ODYSSEUS —
Abm
Have a drink
Gb7
One sip and you’ll understand
Emaj7
The power that’s in your hands, a wine so fresh
Dbm7 Eb7 Abm
You’d never wanna eat human flesh again
Gb7
Then we shall be on our way
Emaj7
No bloodshed in here today, a trade, you see?
Eb7
A gift from you and a gift from me

[Outro]
— ODYSSEUS, (POLYPHEMUS) —
Abm Gb7 Emaj7
(*gulp* Ah, I’d like to thank you)
N.C.
(Stranger, what’s your name?)
Abm Gb7
My name is Nobody, Nobody
Emaj7 N.C.
Nobody (Nobody)
Emaj7 Gb
(For your gift I’ve one to reply)
Ebm Eb7
I’m so glad we see eye to eye
Emaj7 Gb Eb7 Abm
(Yes, you shall be the final man to die!)
N.C.
What? Watch out!
