Verse 1:

 Am
  Hey mama, when you leave
 Am
  Don't leave a thing behind
 F        Am
   I don't want  nothing
 Em       Am
   I can't use nothing

Verse 2:

 Am
   Take care into the hall
 Am
   And if you see my friends
 F        Am
   Tell em I'm  fine
 Em      Am
   Not using nothing

Verse 3:

 Am
   Almost burned out my eyes
 Am
   And threw my ears down to the floor
 F        Am
   I didn't see  nothing
 Em        Am
   I didn't hear nothing

Verse 4:

 Am
   I stood there like a block of stone
 Am
   Knowing all I had to know
 F       Am
   And nothing  more
 Em       Am
   Man, that's nothing

Verse 5:

 Am
   Brothers our troubles are
 Am
   Locked in each others arms
 F         Am
   And you better  pray
 Em         Am
   That they never find you

Verse 6:

 Am
   Cause your back ain't strong enough
 Am
   Burdens doublefold
 F          Am
   They'd crush you down
 Em      Am
   Down into nothing

Verse 7:

 Am
   Being born is going blind
 Am
   And bowing down a thousand times
 F       Am
   To echoes  strung
 Em        Am
   On pure temptation

Verse 8:
 Am
   Sorrow and solitude
 Am
   These are the precious things
 F        Am
   And the only  words
 Em         Am
   That are worth remembering

Outro:

  Am              Am
