Bob Dylan and the Band The Basement Tapes [Verse 1]
A              F#m         D               Bm 
We carried you in our arms on Independence Day

G                       D             A  
 And now you'd throw us all aside and put us all away  

                        F#m            D                   Bm
Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat a father so?  

G                  D                 A 
 To wait upon him hand and foot and always tell him "No"
[Refrain]
C#7              F#m  
 Tears of rage, tears of grief  

D                  A
Why must I always be the thief?  

C#7                             F#m
Come to me now, you know we're so alone

D            A7    Dmaj7 A
 And life is brief 
[Verse 2]
A                  F#m             D             Bm 
It was all very painless  When you went out to receive 

G                 D                  A
All that false instruction, which we never could believe  

A                     F#m             D              Bm
And now the heart is filled with gold as if it was a purse  

G                      D                  A 
But, oh, what kind of love is this which goes from bad to worse?
[Refrain]
C#7               F#m  
 Tears of rage, tears of grief  

D                  A
Why must I always be the thief?  

C#7                             F#m
Come to me now, you know we're so alone

D            A7    Dmaj7 A
 And life is brief 
[Verse 3]
A              F#m            D                          Bm 
We pointed you the way to go and scratched your name in sand

G                               D                A
Though you just thought it was nothing more than a place for you to stand

A                  F#m                        D                          Bm 
I want you to know that while we watched you discovered no one would be true  

G                          D                       A 
And I myself was among the ones who thought it was just a childish thing to do
[Refrain]
C#7               F#m  
 Tears of rage, tears of grief  

D                  A
Why must I always be the thief?  

C#7                             F#m
Come to me now, you know we're so alone

D            A7    Dmaj7 A
