[Am] As I started down the [G]street one day
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
A man came up to me, and he did say
[C] You can't spend your time all [F]alone
[C] I said, what do you think you [G]know
[Am] In the winter on my [G]discontent
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
Solace came and solace quickly went
[C] So I tried to settle [F]down
[C] In some long forgotten [G]town
[Am] But I just could not [G]escape myself
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
I probably could have used a little help
[C] But as usual I r[F]efused
[C] 'Cause help to me always just[G]
It felt like [Am]abuse[F]
It felt like [Am]abuse[G]
[Am] So I put myself up [G]on a cross
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
I made some noise, but could not.. get across
[C] No one could hear all my [F]cries
[C] So I cut the rope and ap[G]ologized
[Am] For all the damage I had [G]done
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
'Cause I was just a friend to.. everyone
[C] Who just did not know right from [F]wrong
[C] Which makes it easier to..[G] get along
[Am] When your feeling real low [G]down
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
And kinda tired of just.. hanging around
[C] In the town of Ca[F]roline
[C] I walked up and down those [G]
Those power [Am]lines[F]
Those power [Am]lines [G]
[Am] Someone's hiding un[G]derneath the stairs
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
I try to tell myself that.. no-ones there
[C] But in the real countr[F]y dark
[C] Someone is dying under[G]..neath the stars
[Am] So I could just say fair t[G]hee well my friend
Am G * (walkup on 5th string to C)
But just in case we never.. meet again
[C] I'm hiding something in the [F]ground
[C] And only you know where it[G]
It can be [Am]found[F]
It can be [Am]found,oh [G]yeah
solo/outro - C | C | F | F | C | C | G | G
