Atlas – The Wood Brothers

(It’s a tired old saying, but you have to listen to the record to catch the
rhythm, you’ll thank me)
Intro
G G G G C C
Verse 1
E
Hallelujah!
Well I just woke up from a dream
A
So far away
D
And it's no accident I landed here
Eyes wide open and seein' clear
G G G G C C
I have come a long long way
I am wiser now
My man Atlas told me
I shouldn't try to hold his world up
He said, "Boy you got some muscle
That you have never used
All you got to do is go ahead and wake up"
Chorus
G G G C
Don't you try to hold my world up
Don't you try to hold my world
Don't you try to hold my world up
Don't you try to hold my world
Slide Part in E
(I don’t play a good slide, so I just play an E chord on fret 13 for effect)

Verse 2
Aphrodite
Well her suitcase was my burden
For so long
She said, "Boy you got some heart and soul
But that's not what your love is for
Lay your burden down and we'll both be stronger"
Don't you try to hold my world up
Don't you try to hold my world
Don't you try to hold my world up
Don't you try to hold my world
