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

Bridge:

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
