This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

Well I know,

Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am

you couldn't love me

G D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

Cause you're promise to a wealthy man

Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

Take a look,

Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am

what are you seein'?

G D

Is that a noose or a wedding band

D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

Should I go

Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am

to see a healer

G D

Nervous twitchin' in my hands

Cadd9 G D

Cadd9 G D

Nervous twitchin' in my head

D A

God help me rid this feelin'

G Cadd9

Cause I'm fallin' all to pieces

G

And I can't get out of bed

C5 / D5

Beggars and Hangers-on

C5 / D5 F5 G5

Try to take you from me

C5 / D5

Someone with a bible in his pocket

F5 G5

clauding everything you see

C5 / D5

Beggars and Hangers-on

C5 / D5 F5 G5

they chip it away

C5 / D5

bury your soul in the river

F5 G5

cause the end is here to stay

Cadd9 G D

Cadd9 G D

D A

God help me rid this feelin'

G Cadd9

Cause I'm fallin' all to pieces

G

And I can't get out of bed

Cadd9 G D

D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

I was wrong

Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am

I don't need you

G

It seems reckless

D

and unfair

D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D

Better days

Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am

Are far behind

G

Guess that's another cross

D

I'll have to bear

Cadd9 G D
