Levon wears his war wound like a crown.
F C
He calls his child Jesus
G Am
`Cause he likes the name
Em7 F Dm7 G
And he sends him to the finest school in town
C F C
And Levon, Levon likes his money
F C
He makes a lot they say
G Am
Spend his days counting
Em7 F Dm7 G
In a garage by the motorway
Em Am F
He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day
C Dm7 C
When the New York Times said God is dead and the war's begun
F C Dm7 G
Alvin Tostig has a son today
F C
And he shall be Levon and he shall be a good man
F C
And he shall be Levon in tradition with the family plan
F C
And he shall be Levon and he shall be a good man
F Dm7 G
He shall be Levon
C F C
Levon sells cartoon balloons in town
F C
His family business thrives
G Am
Jesus blows up balloons all day
Em7 F Dm7 G
Sits on the porch swing watching them fly
C F C
And Jesus, he wants to go to Venus
F C
Leaving Levon far behind
G Am
Take a balloon and go sailing
Em7 F Dm7 G
While Levon, Levon slowly dies
Em Am F
He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day
C Dm7 C
When the New York Times said God is dead and the war's begun
F C Dm7 G
Alvin Tostig has a son today
F C
And he shall be Levon and he shall be a good man
F C
And he shall be Levon in tradition with the family plan
F C
And he shall be Levon and he shall be a good man
F Dm7 G
He shall be Levon
