 A minorAm
  Hey mama, when you leave

 E minorEm       A minorAm
   I can't use nothing

Verse 2:

 A minorAm
   Take care into the hall
 A minorAm
   And if you see my friends
 FF        A minorAm
   Tell em I'm  fine
 E minorEm      A minorAm
   Not using nothing

Verse 3:

 A minorAm
   Almost burned out my eyes
 A minorAm
   And threw my ears down to the floor
 FF        A minorAm
   I didn't see  nothing
 E minorEm        A minorAm
   I didn't hear nothing

Verse 4:

 A minorAm
   I stood there like a block of stone
 A minorAm
   Knowing all I had to know
 FF       A minorAm
   And nothing  more
 E minorEm       A minorAm
   Man, that's nothing

Verse 5:

 A minorAm
   Brothers our troubles are
 A minorAm
   Locked in each others arms
 FF         A minorAm
   And you better  pray
 E minorEm         A minorAm
   That they never find you

Verse 6:

 A minorAm
   Cause your back ain't strong enough
 A minorAm
   Burdens doublefold
 FF          A minorAm
   They'd crush you down
 E minorEm      A minorAm
   Down into nothing

Verse 7:

 A minorAm
   Being born is going blind
 A minorAm
   And bowing down a thousand times
 FF       A minorAm
   To echoes  strung
 E minorEm        A minorAm
   On pure temptation

Verse 8:
 A minorAm
   Sorrow and solitude
 A minorAm
   These are the precious things
 FF        A minorAm
   And the only  words
 E minorEm         A minorAm
   That are worth remembering

Outro:
