Chords with lyrics

Intro:
Chord diagramA minorAm

Verse:
Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
The pause of the morning, it gave me a chill,
Chord diagramA minorAm                      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm
& I knew I would soon have to decide,
        Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
Tired of living, just to pay off my bills,
        Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm
So I packed up without a goodbye.
                Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
I found myself a place to stay out from the cold,
        Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm
Where the air & the fishing was free,
        Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
& my crazy ways I did not have to hide,
        Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
On the banks of the black swanee.

Chorus:
   Chord diagramA minorAm
I only wanted a place of my own,
        Chord diagramG+G               Chord diagramA minorAm
Some land & a garden to grow,
Chord diagramG+G               Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramC majorC
But in the end I could not dance alone,
        Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramA minorAm
So I packed up & headed back home.

Verse:
Chord diagramC majorC               Chord diagramG+G
I traded the quiet for the roar of the crowds,
        Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm
The dawn for the big city lights,
        Chord diagramC majorC               Chord diagramG+G
I got myself a job @ a bank here downtown,
Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
& I drank away my lonely nights.

Chorus:
     Chord diagramA minorAm
How I dreamt of that place of my own,
Chord diagramG+G                       Chord diagramA minorAm
Where I could remain as I am,
        Chord diagramG+G               Chord diagramA minorAm              Chord diagramC majorC
& I dreaded the way that I headed back home,
                G\Em            Chord diagramA minorAm
When the solitude I could not stand?

Verse:
Chord diagramC majorC               Chord diagramG+G
Then fate found a girl with the moon in her eyes,
        Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm
& a beauty of likes never seen,
                        Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
But her heart was a treasure to never be mine,
        Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
& she left me in sheer misery.

Chorus:
                                Chord diagramA minorAm
Take me back to that place of my own,
        Chord diagramG+G               Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramG+G
Where no I can hear a man cry.
                Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramC majorC
I do not care if I must die alone,
        Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramA minorAm
For I know now to not compromise.
Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramA minorAm
