The Weakest Man chords by Drive-by Truckers

Verse:

C
It's a shame for you to do me the way you did babe
F                                   C
Making me put you down before I was through
G                               F
You tempted me and tried me and I kept you right beside me
C                              G
You ruined me for everyone but you

C
It's easy to love a thing so warm and soothing
F                                   C
That gets you through the night so tenderly
G                               F
but after all these nights with you all I remember
C                              G
Is forgetting just how cold your heart could be

Chorus:

F                       C           G                                C
Leaving you wont be any harder than walking out the door and leaving town
F                                     Am
but I'll be leaving knowing surviving you don't make me stronger
C
Than the weakest man who ever turned you down


Verse:

C
The body in that pretty dress you wore dear
F                                   C
Fit my shaking hand just like a glove
G                               F
but trembling's for the fearful old and crying
C                              G
Getting old and sad and scared ain't worth your love

C
so will you let me go just like I came babe?
F                                   C
Willful clear of mind and free to see
G                               F
Clear enough to see the others like you
C                              G
and mindful my will breaks so easily


Chorus:

F                       C           G                                C
Leaving you wont be any harder than walking out the door and leaving town
F                                     Am
but I'll be leaving knowing surviving you don't make me stronger
C
