verse 1

C5
sparrow and wolf lay as still as the blades of the grass
A5                          F5                          C5
like worn leather boots, of colour and size that would last

C5
caught them a lark in a trap, and each held a wing
          A5            F5                             C5
then they tore it apart, before that small bird could sing

C5
confused by the wind, bruised by the size of the rain
    A5               F5                       C5
she turned in to him , begged for the light to remain
C5
but plans have been made, all the furniture sold
    A5                F5                              C5
so store up your hate, use it for warmth when you're cold

chorus

F5
for I have seen no joy, only danger,
C5
I see no joy, only strangers,
G5                               F5
I see no joy, see no joy in this world
F5
should you, choose to go, please be careful of,
C5
lonesome roads, men who travel them ,
G5                                   F5
will not know, will not know of your ways

F5
oh-oo-oh 
D5
oh-oo-oh
F5
oh-oo-oh
D5      F5
oh-oo-oh
G5

C5 C5 A5 F5 for the Ahhhahh bit

chorus 2

F5
still I have, seen no joy, only dangers, I
C5
see no joy, only strangers, I
G5                              F5 
see no joy, see no joy in this world,

you should choose to go, please remember what
C5
you have learned, from the little bird,
G5                              F5
always dear, always dear to my heart
