Intro: C G x4

Verse:
     C        F             C         G
When I was a babe, I fell down in my holler
      C        F           C         G
When I was a girl, I fell into your arms
     C            F            C              G
We fell on hard times and we lost our bright color
     Am          F          G            C
You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms

C G x2

Verse:
    C             F             C            G
I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like honey
     C             F          C           G
You stole and you gambled and I said you should
    C            F           C            G
We sang for our suppers, we drank up our money
      Am            F           G          C
Then, one day, you left, sayinʼ I was no good

C G x2

Verse:
       C            F             C               G
Well, alright, Iʼm bad, but then youʼre no prize either
 C            F              C             G
Alright, Iʼm bad, but then thatʼs nothinʼ new
     C             F          C               G
You say you wonʼt love me, I wonʼt love you neither
     Am         F           G        C
Just let me remind you what I Am to you

C G x2

Verse:
       C         F             C               G
ʼCause I Am the one who looks out when youʼre leapinʼ
  C       F             C             G
I Am the one who knows how you were brave
    C         F              C             G
And I Am the one who heard what you said sleepinʼ
      Am            F          G         C
Iʼll take that and more when I Go to my grave

C G x2

Verse:
       C          F          C            G
Itʼs sooner than later that Iʼm six feet under
        C         F          C          G
Itʼs sooner than later that youʼll be alone
    C            F         C         G
So who will you turn to tomorrow? I wonder
     Am             F             G             C
For when the bell rings, lover, youʼre on your own

C G x2

Verse:
C         F           C           G
I Am the one who you let see you weepinʼ
C           F              C          G
I know the soul that you struggle to save
     C           F            C           G
Too bad Iʼm the bet that you lost in the reapinʼ
      Am            F         G         C
Now, what will you Do when I Go to my grave?
