Verse 1:
    F# minorF#m F#m7/E   EbdimEbdim  D MajorD
I'm a river, I keep running on
    F# minorF#m  F#m7/E EbdimEbdim      D MajorD
I'm a pillar you got used to leaning on
  F# minorF#m         F#m7/E
Underneath it, there's a person
   EbdimEbdim     D MajorD
I'm a woman and I'm hurting
     C# minorC#m       B minorBm       C# minorC#m
'Cause I feel like I'm holding up the world


Chorus:
    A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
When I lay this burden down
       D MajorD       B minorBm
Who's gonna take it up for me?
     A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
When you run me in the ground
      D MajorD        B minorBm
That's the day you're gonna see
       A augmentedA  B minorBm  F# minorF#m
For all I've done, I'm alone
   E minorEm   D MajorD         B minorBm
Just for a moment can I not be strong?
       A augmentedA       G+G
So how 'bout now, oh can I lay
       D MajorD
This burden down?

I'm a giver, I don't think about what's mine
   F# minorF#m           F#m7/E
You keep me asking, you keep taking
      EbdimEbdim   D MajorD
And that's no reciprocation
   C# minorC#m      B minorBm     C# minorC#m
I shouldn't have to do this by myself

When you run me in the ground

For all I've done, I'm alone
   E minorEm   D MajorD         B minorBm
Just for a moment can I not be strong?

This burden down?
