Verse 1:

Am Em From the forest itself comes the hand for the ax Am Em Split this wilderness listen up this ain't where it's at Am Em Clear a path so that you could find your way back Am Em Chop 'em down, chop 'em down; chop 'em down, chop 'em down
Dm Em Am Time flies by like clouds passing in the sky Dm Em lifetimes hear and gone like the blink of an eye Dm Em Am Dm March through this desert one-step at a time, march through the desert one step at a time

Verse 2:

Am Em From the forest itself comes the handle for the ax, Am Em Drop the staff Moshe rabbainu split the ocean in half, Am Em March through the desert this ain't where it's at Am Em Chop 'em down, chop 'em down; chop 'em down, chop 'em down
Dm Em Am Patterns engraved not so easily erased, still wandering trying to find your place Dm Em Playing the game I see pain on your face now a day's the yiddin like children sold as slaves Dm Em DAm Strange ways running through the maze, strange ways always lost in the desert trying to Find to find your place lost in the desert trying to find your place

Verse 3:

Am Em From the forest itself comes the hand for the ax Am Em Split this wilderness listen up this ain't where it's at Am Em Clear a path so that you could find your way back Am Em Chop 'em down, chop 'em down; chop 'em down, chop 'em down Am Em Chop 'em down, chop 'em down; chop 'em down, chop 'em down
Dm Em Am Joseph descended sold as a slave, Dm Em Thrown into a dungeon cause he wouldn't be swayed Dm Em Interpreted pharaoh's dreams and Egypt was saved Dm Stock piled food for seven years of rain Dm Then sold to all the nations when the drought came

Verse 4:

Am Em Joseph rose to power and the yiddin stayed Am Em They started to build and success was made Am Em Pharos getting worried let's make them pay Am Em bound in chains first born was sent down to their graves
Dm Em Am Moshe was saved and a prince he was raised Dm Em Hashem spoke to him hears a message to relay Dm Em Take my Nation from Mitzrayim (Egypt) I see the suffering Dm Hard hearts ego breaks take sparks and make way Dm Trail blaze through the wasteland breaking the chains
Interlude: Am Em Am Em

Verse 5:

Am Last generation just the ruminants Em March through the desert leaving footprints Am Em Peel off the lid this is just plastic, get into it, get into it Am Em Heavy hitter stepping solid never quitter jump into the ocean before it split got a jump into it Am Rip through Egypt rip through it, Em Get into it, Am Em 600, 000 witnessed it, no you didn't forget no you didn't forget
Interlude: Am Em Am Em

Verse 6:

Am In the spiritual desert things are not what they seem Em Snakes camouflaged just fit the scene
Outro: Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em
