Capo 1

Intro:
D5
D5 B5 A5  x3
G5


Verse 1:
D5                        G5       D5
Just barely twenty with a slight frame
      D5                        G5           B5
And a hunger for something that I couldn't name
       G5               D5
I went running, I went running
G5                A5        D5
Running barefoot into the night


Verse 2:
      D5                   G5          D5
I got hair the color of a silkworm's dream
    D5                               G5        B5
The prettiest little thing that you ever did see
          G5                  D5
They come running, they come running
   G5                       A5          D5
Anything they can do, they clamor for me


Chorus:
G5                 D5
(Ohhhhh) It never changes
G5               B5
(Ohhhhh) But we carry the weight with us
G5       D5            A5
(Ohhhhh) It's a hard world


Interlude:
D5 B5 A5   x3
D5


Verse 3:
D5                   G5         D5
It all seems such a long time ago
     D5                         G5              B5
They buried my story when they filled in that hole
       G5               D5
Nobody running, nobody running
G5      A5         B5 
Nobody trying to explain


Middle bit:
G5                   A5                B5     
I wanna wake in the woods beside the lake, just
G5                        A5            B5
Resting my head, in some moss covered glen


Chorus:
G5                 D5
(Ohhhhh) It never changes
G5               B5
(Ohhhhh) But we carry the weight with us
G5       D5            A5
(Ohhhhh) It's a hard world


Verse 4:
D5                             G5       D5
Motor oil coloured hair and a white t-shirt
    D5            G5            B5
Now tan from the rust and the dirt


Bridge:
       G5                    D5
Nobody calls for me, nobody hunts for me
     G5             A5        B5   
They don't seem to know I'm gone
          G5                    D5
The other girls and me resting under this tree
    G5          B5          A5             B5
Are green with envy at the attention you draw


Chorus:
G5                 D5
(Ohhhhh) It never changes
G5               B5
(Ohhhhh) But we carry the weight with us
G5       D5            A5
(Ohhhhh) It's a hard world
G5
For the little things
       A5      G5
A hard world, oh oh oh
       A5                B5
A hard wor- or- or- or- old
                 A5
For all the lost girls


End:
         G5            D5
Remember me, remember me
G5                A5             B5  
underneath this lonesome awful tree
G5                 A5             B5  
Let the roots and soil drink of me
           G5                   B5            A5                   B5 
Whispering leaves and pointing branches will tell them where I'm lying
