[Verse 1]
    C        F            C          
When I was a babe, I fell down in the 
G
holler
     C        F           C         G
When I was a girl, I fell into your arms
   C            F            C       
We fell on hard times and we lost our 
      G
bright color
    Am          F          G          
You went to the dogs and I lived by my 
C
charms

  C             F              C         
I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like
 G
honey
    C             F          C          
You stole and you gambled and I said you 
G
should
   C            F           C           
We sang for our suppers, we drank up our 
G
money
     Am            F           G        
Then, one day, you left, sayin' I was no 
C
good

Well, alright, I'm bad, but then you're no
       G
prize either
C            F             C             
Alright, I'm bad, but then that's nothin' 
G
new
    C             F          C         
You say you won't love me, I won't love 
    G
you neither
     Am        F            G    C
Just let me remind you what I am to you

'Cause I am the one who looks out when 
       G
you're leapin'
C        F             C             G
I am the one who knows how you were brave
   C        F              C            
And I am the one who heard what you said 
G
sleepin'
     Am            F          G       C
I'll take that and more when I go to my 
grave

It's sooner than later that I'm six feet 
G
under
     C           F          C        
It's sooner than later that you'll be 
 G
alone
    C            F         C        G
So who will you turn to tomorrow I wonder?
    Am            F             G        
For when the bell rings, lover, you're on 
C
your own

I am the one who you let see you weepin'
C           F              C          G
I know the soul that you struggle to save
    C           F            C          
Too bad I'm the bet that you lost in the 
G
reapin'
     Am           F         G        
Now, what will you do when I go to my 
C
grave?
