All That You Have Is Your Soul Emmylou Harris
Verse:
[A]Oh my mama told m[D]e
[A]'Cause she say she learned the hard [E]way
[A]She say she wanna spare the child[D]ren
[D]She say don't give or sell your soul away
'Cause [A]all that you h[E]ave is your s[A]oul
Chorus:
[D]So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
[A]Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
[D]Hunger only for a taste of justice
[A]Hunger only for a world of truth
'Cause all that you [E]have is your [A]soul
Verse:
[D]Well I was a pretty young girl once
[A]I had dreams I had high hopes
[E]I married a man he stole my heart away
[D]He gave his love but what a high price I paid
[A]All that you [E]have is your [A]soul
[D]Why was I such a young fool
[A]Thought I'd make history
Making babies was the best I could do
[E]Thought I'd made something that could be mine forever
[D]Found out the hard way one can't possess another
And [A]all that you [E]have is your [A]soul
Chorus:
[D]So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
[A]Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
[D]Hunger only for a taste of justice
[A]Hunger only for a world of truth
'Cause all that you [E]have is your [A]soul
Verse:
[D]I thought, thought that I could find a way
[A]To beat the system
To make a deal and have no debts to pay
[E]I'd take it all, I'd take it all, I'd run away
[D]Me for myself first class and first rate
But [A]all that you [E]have is your [A]soul
[D]Here I am, I'm waiting for a better day
[A]A second chance
A little luck to come my way
[E]A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again
[D]And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands
'Cause [A]all that you [E]have is your s[A]oul
Chorus:
[D]So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
[A]Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
[D]Hunger only for a taste of justice
[A]Hunger only for a world of truth
'Cause all that you [E]have is your [A]soul
Verse:
[A]Oh my mama told m[D]e
[A]'Cause she say she learned the hard [E]way
[A]She say she wanna spare the child[D]ren
[D]She say don't give or sell your soul away
'Cause [A]all that you h[E]ave is your s[A]oul
Coda:
[A]All that you [D]have
[A]All that you [D]have
[A]All that you [E]have
Is your [A]soul
