[Intro] G Am F C/G [Verse 1]
      C/G
Well I wake up in the morning, try to set my hook

                                             C7
I used to be a settled boy, never stumbled or shook

F                                                      C/G
But now, I've got no hand to hold, no friend to call my own
[Chorus]
G                                   Am                                  F
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got
[Verse 2]
C/G
So maybe I'll pick up and go, with no thinkin' through

                                             C7
Just sleep out every night and try to forget you

  F                                            C/G
I'd look out on some ocean, wash my head in blue
[Chorus]
G                                      Am                                 F
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got
[Verse 3]
    C/G
Been a-rockin' and a-roll in', reelin' in my time

                                                 C7
I set myself up fancy-like, and set a brand new line

F                                                  C/G
Well, I oughta know by now, it comes and goes it's true
[Chorus]
G                                       Am                                F
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got
[Bridge]
Am             E         F     X4
Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm Mmm-mmm
[Verse 4]
C/G
Well, thinkin' ain't no pastime and thinkin' ain't no friend

                                                C7
If all you do is sit around and think about the end

F                                                  C/G
Maybe I will get to prayin' someday before I'm through
[Outro]
G                                       Am                                F
Well I ain't the one to ask much of big men in the sky, but it's all I've got
