Intro: Em C Am G Em C Am G*
Em C When I was a babe I fell down in the holler Am G When I was a girl I fell into your arms Em C We fell on hard times and we lost our bright color Am G You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms Em C I danced for my dinner, spread kisses like honey Am G You stole and you gambled and I said you should Em C We sang for our suppers and we drank up our money Am G Then one day you left, saying I was no good Em C Well, all right, I'm bad, but then, you're no prize either Am G All right, I'm bad, but then, that's nothing new Em C You say you won't love me, well I won't love you neither Am G Just let me remind you who I am to you Em C 'Cause I am the one who looks out when you're leaping Am G And I am the one who knows how you were brave Em C And I am the one who knows what you said sleeping Am G I'll take that and more when I go to my grave Em C It's sooner than later that I'm six feet under Am G It's sooner than later that you'll be alone Em C So who will you turn to tomorrow, I wonder Am G For when the bell rings, lover, you're on your own Em C I am the one who you let see you weeping Am G I know the soul that you struggle to save Em C Too bad I'm the bet that you lost in the reaping Am G Now what will you do when I go to my grave?
