NOTHIN?
TOWNES VAN ZANDT
CAPO 3
[Am]HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,
[Am]DON?T LEAVE A THING BEHIND
[F]I DON?T WANT [Am]NOTHIN??? [E]I DON?T NEED [Am]NOTHIN?
TAKE CARE INTO THE HALL,
AND IF YOU SEE MY FRIENDS
TELL THEM I?M FINE??? NOT USING NOTHIN?
ALMOST BURNED OUT MY EYES,
THREW MY EARS DOWN TO THE FLOOR
I DIDN?T SEE NOTHIN??? I DIDN?T HEAR NOTHIN?
I STOOD THERE LIKE A BLOCK OF STONE
KNOWIN? ALL I HAD TO KNOW
AND NOTHIN? MORE??MAN, THAT?S NOTHIN?
AS BROTHERS OUR TROUBLES ARE
LOCKED IN EACH OTHERS ARMS
AND YOU BETTER PRAY?? THEY NEVER FIND YOU
YOUR BACK AIN?T STRONG ENOUGH
FOR BURDENS DOUBLEFOLD.
THEY?D CRUSH YOU DOWN??. DOWN INTO NOTHIN?
BEING BORN IS GOING BLIND
AND BUYING DOWN A THOUSAND TIMES
TO ECHOES STRUNG?? ON PURE TEMPTATION
SORROW AND SOLITUDE
THESE ARE PRECIOUS THINGS
AND THE WORDS??..THAT ARE WORTH REMEMBERIN?
HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,
DON?T LEAVE A THING BEHIND
I DON?T WANT NOTHIN??? I DON?T NEED NOTHIN?
