[Verse 1]
F                  Bb                  F
Levon bears his war  wound like a crown
Bb                      F
  He calls his child "Jesus"
Cmaj7/E                        Dm
       'Cause he likes the name
       Am                 Bb                 Gm
And he sends him to the finest school in town

[Verse 2]
F      Bb              F
Levon, Levon likes his money
Bb                        F
  He makes a lot, they say
Cmaj7/E                    Dm
       Spends his days counting
     Am            Bb      Gm
In a garage by the motorway

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                 Dm                 Bb
  He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas day
         F/A
When the New York Times said,
    Gm
"God  is dead
        F           Bb                F/A
And the War's begun"  Alvin Tostig has
           Gm
a son today
                  Bb
And he shall be Levon

[Chorus]
                      F/A
And he shall be a good   man
                     Bb
And he shall be Levon
                        F/A
In tradition with the family plan
                     Bb
And he shall be Levon
                      F/A
And he shall be a good   man
Bb            C
He shall be Levon

Levon sells cartoon  balloons in town
Bb                           F
  His family business thrives
Cmaj7/E                        Dm
Jesus blows up balloons all day
       Am
Sits on  the porch swing,
Bb               Gm
watching them fly

[Verse 4]
    F         Bb               F
And Jesus, he wants to go to Venus
Bb                      F
  Leave Levon far behind
Cmaj7/E                         Dm
       Take a balloon and go sailing
      Am     Bb               Gm
While Levon, Levon slowly dies
