1st Verse::
D
I used to be the kind of guy
                         G
I could laugh as well as cry
       D                             A
With a heart feather-soft and summer-warm
             D
Since you've left me I've been faced
                             G
With emptiness that's been replaced
       D                                  A          D
With a heart that's hard and heavy as a sack full of stones

2nd Verse::
D
I never thought I'd ever see
                             G
The man my mirror is showing me
       D
Lord I must have aged ten years
                  A
Since you've been gone
            D
The longest mile you'll ever crawl
                     G
Is the one after you fall
         D                                 A          D
Draggin' round a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones

Chorus:
         G
With the world upon my shoulders
       D
And my feelings on my sleeve
             G        D
Every time I close my eyes at night
      Em              A
All I do is watch you leave
       D                                    G
But by far the biggest curse of being left alone
             D                                 A          D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones

3rd Verse:
D
Well I tried turning to a bottle
                         G
But the bottle turned on me
           D
I've tried everything
                             A
But nothing sets your memory free
             D
I'm serving life here in a prison
                      G
That we once called a home
       D                                  A          D
With a heart that's cold and heavy as a sack full of stones

         G
With the world upon my shoulders
       D
And my feelings on my sleeve
             G        D
Every time I close my eyes at night
      Em              A
All I do is watch you leave
       D                                    G
But by far the biggest curse of being left alone
             D                                 A          D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
                                            G
Yes by far the biggest curse of being left alone
             D       G            D            A          D
Is draggin' around a heart that's heavy as a sack full of stones
