As recorded by Laura Marling (From the 2011 Album A CREATURE II DON'T KNOW) [Intro] G C G C G [Intro]
G
I choose to stay far away

G
From the ones that think

G
Money is money to share

G
Don't ask me why

G
And I'll tell you no lies
[Verse 2]
G
Sonny don't come here no more

G
He don't drink from this well

G
O he's done with the world

G
And done with the girl

G
And I don't ask him why

G
And he tells me no lies
[Chorus]
G                   E            N.C.
Those of us who are lost and low

  Dm
I know how you feel

  G                            C   G  C  G
I know it's not right but it's real
[Bridge]
  Dm
I don't ask for love

      G
And I don't beg for money

         Dm7                     G
I'm just asking for grace and forgiveness

G
Now honey don't ask me why

         C           G C G
And I'll tell you no lies

Dm
Been looking for answers

   G
In unsavoury places

       Dm7
On the highest of mountains

           G
And on the lowest of bases

                       C
And I still don't know why

                   G C G
I still don't know why
[Chorus]
G7                  E7
Those of us who are lost and low

   Dm7
We know how you feel

   G                            C G
We know it's not right but it's real

     C     G
But it's real
[Verse 3]
G
I took the wind from the sea

G
I took the blood from an arrow

           C      G
I took the wisdom of spring

          G7                   G
And I was thrown and blown and tossed and turned until

G7                      G            G7
Time found its hand and called an end

G
Me and time we go way back when

G
I was a child

G
And I always knew why

G
I knew my name

G
I knew my road

    G7                    C
And I stayed away from heavy loads

 G    C     G    C
I'm still, I'm low

 G    C     G  C G
O lord am I low
[Chorus]
G                   E7
Those of us who are lost and low

  Dm7
I know how you feel

  G                            C G
I know it's not right but it's real

     C     G C G
But it's real
