G I am the Man, Thomas I am the Man Look at these nail scars D G Here in my hand
G They drove me up the hill, Thomas I am the Man They made me carry the cross, Thomas D G I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas I am the Man Look at these nail scars Here in my hand
They crowned my head with thorns, Thomas I am the Man They nailed me to the cross, Thomas I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas I am the Man Look at these nail scars Here in my hand
They pierced me in the side I am the Man I died on the cross, Thomas I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas I am the Man Look at these nails scars Here in my hand
They buried me in the tomb, Thomas I am the Man In three days I rose, Thomas I am the Man
I am the Man, Thomas I am the Man Look at these nails scars Here in my hand
Dylan seems to have combined verse two and three into the following:
They pierced my side with thorns, Thomas I am the Man They made me carry the cross, Thomas I am the Man

They drove me off a cliff, Thomas
