SACK FULL OF STONES
Intro: E A E B7 B7 E
(B7)I used to (E)be the kind of guy
I could laugh as well as (A)cry
With a (E)heart feather-soft and summer - (B7)warm
Since you've (E)left me I've been faced
With emptiness that's been re(A)placed
With a (E)heart that's hard and heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones
(B7)I never (E)thought I'd ever see
The man my mirror is showing (A)me
Lord I (E)must have aged ten years
Since you've been (B7)gone
The longest (E)mile you'll ever crawl
Is the one after you (A)fall
Draggin' (E)round a heart that's heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones
Chorus:
With the (A)world upon my shoulders
And my (E)feelings on my sleeve
Every time I (A)close my (E)eyes at night
All I (F#)do is watch you (B7)leave
But by (E)far the biggest curse of being left a(A)lone
Is draggin' a(E)round a heart that's heavy
as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones
(B7)Well I tried (E)turning to the bottle
But the bottle turned on (A)me
I've tried (E)everything
But nothing sets your memory (B7)free
I'm serving (E)life here in a prison
That we once called a (A)home
With a (E)heart that's cold and heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones
REPEAT CHORUS:
'Ja well - You won't catch the big one if you don't throw your line in'
