Chorus:
D MajorD              G+G
Cruel cruel world must I go on
D MajorD              A augmentedA A7A7
Cruel cruel world I'm movin on
D MajorD          D7D7
I've been living too fast
D7D7     G+G
I've been living too wrong
D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD
Cruel cruel world I'm gone

Verse 1:
D MajorD            G+G
This big ol' world sure got me runnin' round
D MajorD           A augmentedA        A7A7
I heard a voice that said just settle down
D MajorD              D7D7
And with the moonlight as my guide
D7D7              G+G
And with this feeling deep inside
D MajorD        A augmentedA        D MajorD
I know now that I am homeward bound

D MajorD                  G+G
As I wander through the pines, the whisperings, they tell
D MajorD             A augmentedA     A7A7
Of the many before me who tried and fell
D MajorD           D7D7
Seeking fortune and ways
D7D7      G+G
To get to glory days
D MajorD        A augmentedA        D MajorD
Looking for a place in this old world

Chorus:
D MajorD              G+G
Cruel cruel world must I go on
D MajorD              A augmentedA A7A7
Cruel cruel world I'm movin on
D MajorD          D7D7
I've been living too fast
D7D7     G+G
I've been living too wrong
D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD
Cruel cruel world I'm gone

Verse 2:
D MajorD          G+G
Desert roads, desert plains
D MajorD          A augmentedA A7A7
I have seen so much pain
D MajorD      D7D7   G+G
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
D MajorD    A augmentedA     D MajorD
No more, no more, cruel world

D MajorD             G+G
Dusty trail saw a vapor light
D MajorD           A augmentedA         A7A7
Was it mirage? Don't know but it seemed right
D MajorD            D7D7
I felt mission I felt trust
D MajorD          G+G
I knew that then I must
D MajorD        A augmentedA      D MajorD
Go to her from this cruel world

Chorus:
D MajorD              G+G
Cruel cruel world must I go on

I've been living too wrong
D MajorD      A augmentedA      D MajorD
Cruel cruel world I'm gone
