[Chorus]
G Em7 You carry the weight, the weight of the world Bm D Dsus4 D It's breakin' you down on your back like a boulder G Em7 Bm Before it's too late, get rid of it, girl D Dsus4 D Get it off of your shoul-der Am C I know you've been used Am C | G | G | But you gotta lose the weight of the world (link)

Em7 Every heart has a hunger C I'm not getting any younger A7 | C | D | I got all the crosses I can bear
[Chorus]
G Em7 Don't give me the weight, the weight of the world Bm D Dsus4 D It's breakin' me down on my back like a boulder G Em7 Bm Before it's too late, get rid of it, girl D Dsus4 D Get it off of my shoul-der Am C You know I've been used Am C | G | G | And I gotta lose the weight of the world (link)

G Em7 But we carry the weight, the weight of the world Bm D Dsus4 D It's breakin' us down on our backs like a boulder G Em7 Bm Before it's too late, get rid of it, girl D Dsus4 D Get it off of our shoul-ders Am C We've all been used Am C And we gotta lose
[Chorus]
| G | Em7 | The weight of the world Bm D Dsus4 D It's takin' us down and the night's growin' col-der G Em7 Bm Just blame it on fate, that was yesterday, girl D Dsus4 D And we're just growin' ol-der Am C We've all been abused Am C [ G ] Now it's time to lose the weight of the world
