(Bm)heart was down
that (D)Greenville town,
(Bm)more concerned
but (D)truly learned
how (Bm)every bone
to (D)all alone
But (G)head,
when (G)bed
and you are (C)gone
And if I had seen
the way it would be
I'd hushed your cries
when you came to me
If I could do what I did to you
the same to me then I would love for you to see
that I sleep with remorse
and regret hangs round my door
for ever more.
If I had known the lowering tide,
was lowering with the way you felt inside
if I had known all hope was gone
a broken heart and a broken home
That pierced, my lover's past
and carved a lonely path...
for her to walk
So if ever someone one says to you,
life isn't fair, get used to it
Then you should say 'Well it might beβ¦
If folks like you won't let it be'
but Iβll kiss your head
when death becomes my bed
and I am gone
