                  Amaj7
If you see me all alone
A7                              D       Dm
  Well, will you just mind your own
                     A
I am trying to walk on home
                  E
I need to rest my bones
              A           A7
And I wanna be alone

                        Amaj7
And don't tell me to stay still
A7                        D       Dm
    Don't you know I never will
                    A
I'll keep on moving 'til
                      E
All my spirit has been killed
                    A              A7
So don't tell me to stay still



                     E
I'll tell you all my fears
                    A           A7
If you promise to be near
                         E
You can have my heart, my dear
                           D
But I'll cry for a thousand years
     E                A       A7
If I tell you all my fears
                 E
I can see all of it too
                              A        A7
The ghosts that circle me and you
                       E
In the drawings that I drew
                              D
All the ghosts, some old, some new
      E                 A
I can see all of them, too



                       Amaj7
And don't holler at me, man
A7                          D          Dm
   And don't try to hold my hand
                     A
I didn't think you'd understand
                E
But I'm happy as I am
                     A      A7
So don't holler at me man



                        E
People think I turned out right
                              A             A7
But they don't hear me in the night
                         E
I worry if the sun don't shine
                          D
Then I'll be crying all the time
       E                 A           A7
People think I turned out right
                           E
And when I see those golden rays
                        A            A7
I know I'm in for better days
                           E
Like the birds fly from the bay
                        D
I will free my mournful ways
       E                        A
When I see those golden rays
