Intro: G D x4 Verse: D When I walk beside her C I am the better man G When I look to leave her D I always stagger back again D Once I built an Ivory tower C so I could worship from above G When I climb down to be set free D she took me in again Chorus: D thereʼs a big Am A big hard sun G beaten on the big people D in the big hard world Verse: D When she comes to greet me C She is mercy at my feet G When I see her pin her charm D She just throws it back at me D Once I dug an early grave C To find a better land G She just smile and laughed at me D And took her bruise back again Chorus: D thereʼs a big Am A big hard sun G beaten on the big people D in the big hard world D thereʼs a big Am A big hard sun G beaten on the big people D in the big hard world Verse: D Once I stood to lose her C when I saw what I had done G bound down and flew away the hours D of her garden and her sun D so I tried to warn her C I turned to see her weep G 40 days and 40 nights D and itʼs still coming down on me Chorus: D thereʼs a big Am A big hard sun G beaten on the big people D in the big hard world D thereʼs a big Am A big hard sun G beaten on the big people D in the big hard world
