Capo 2:
Verse 1:
A
I refuse to spend the rest of
D
my days trying to get away
A
from all the things I did
E
when I knew not what I had done
A
Oh so young and tired of love
D
was not an item my own
A
bottle always refused to hear them tell me
E
not to stare into the sun
A
This pornographic place told me
D A
a body was to be feared and then wanted at the same
E
time man, if you could figure how.
A
Fear because it was the pathway
D A
to a mortal sin and then wanted because we'll all be dust a
E A
few short years from now.
Chorus:
E D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
E D
All we're told is to do sit and bear it
A
For a little while,
D A
On this dark and dirty mile.
V2
A
Took awhile at least for me
D
to live enough 'till I believed in
A
none of what I heard and less than
E
half of what I saw
A
Mark the days have come and gone
D
some are lost and some are wrong
A
and way back home we'll figure out
E
a place to place it all
Chorus:
E D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
E D
All we're told is to do sit and bear it
A
For a little while,
D A
On this dark and dirty mile
D A
We're all family here on trial
D A D
On this dark and dirty mile
Instrumental with verse A, D, finishing D, E, A
V3
A
Finally I realized that
D
knowledge better make you wise
A
and all the knots you tied
E
will leave you in a ball.
A
Helpless as when we were born
D
thread barren and holy worn
A
out shivering as summer
E
gives way to early fall
Chorus:
E D
It's a broken hearted world that we inherit
