A D A E
When I was a babe I fell down in the holler
A D A E
When I was a girl I fell into your arms
A D A E
We fell on hard times and we lost our bright color
F#m D E A
You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms
[INTRO 1X]
[Segunda Parte]
A D A E
I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like honey
A D A E
You stole and you gambled and I said you should
A D A E
We sang for our suppers, and we drank up our money
F#m D E A
Then one day you left, saying I was no good
[INTRO 1X]
[Terceira Parte]
A D A E
Well, all right, I'm bad, but then, you're no prize Either
A D A E
All right, I'm bad, but then, that's nothing new
A D A E
You say you won't love me, well I won't love you Neither
F#m D E A
Just let me remind you who I am to you
[Estribillo]
A D A E
'Cause I am the one who looks out when you're leaping
A D A E
I am the one who knows how you were brave
A D A E
And I am the one who knows what you said sleeping
F#m D E A
I'll take that and more when I go to my grave
[Quarta Parte]
A D A E
It's sooner than later that I'm six feet under
A D A E
It's sooner than later that you'll be alone
A D A E
So who will you turn to tomorrow, I wonder?
F#m D E A
For when the bell rings, lover, you're on your own
[Estribillo]
A D A E
I am the one who you let see you weeping
A D A E
I know the soul that you struggle to save
A D A E
Too bad I'm the bet that you lost in the reaping
F#m D E A
Now what will you do when I go to my grave?
