D
I used to be the kind of guy
G
I could laugh as well as cry
D A
With a heart feather-soft and summer-warm
D
Since you've left me I've been faced
G
With emptiness that's been replaced
D A D
With a heart that's hard and heavy as a sack full of stones
[2nd Verse:]
D
I never thought I'd ever see
G
The man my mirror is showing me
D
Lord I must have aged ten years
A
Since you've been gone
D
The longest mile you'll ever crawl
G
Is the one after you fall
D A D
Draggin' round a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
[Chorus]
G
With the world upon my shoulders
D
And my feelings on my sleeve
G D
Every time I close my eyes at night
Em A
All I do is watch you leave
D G
But by far the biggest curse of being left alone
D A D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
[Bridge]
[3rd Verse]
D
Well I tried turning to a bottle
G
But the bottle turned on me
D
I've tried everything
A
But nothing sets your memory free
D
I'm serving life here in a prison
G
That we once called a home
D A D
With a heart that's cold and heavy as a sack full of stones
G
With the world upon my shoulders
D
And my feelings on my sleeve
G D
Every time I close my eyes at night
Em A
All I do is watch you leave
D G
But by far the biggest curse of being left alone
D A D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
G
Yes by far the biggest curse of being left alone
D G D A D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
