Am Dm Am
Come on baby let me take your troubles away
Dm E
Some mean old mama's got your head all in a horrible way
Am
Still for all your crying and all your pain
Dm
You're just the sweetest little woman that I've seen in my day
Am E Am
So come on pretty mama let me take your troubles away
Am Dm Am
I've heard you wake up crying from the evils lyin' under our bed
Dm E
You say there's no use trying to protect you from the danger and dread
Am
Though this world is made of fearsome beasts that bark and bite
Dm
We were born to put these creatures through one hell of a fight
Am E Am
May we feast upon the flesh of any fever that befalls you tonight
Am Dm Am
Soon her sides will split wide open
Am E
We shall feast when darkness falls
Am Dm Am
Sing until our jaws are broken
Am E Am
Heed the blackened water's call
Am Dm Am
Lay down your burdens don't you let them drag you into the ground
Dm E
I know you're hurtin' but there's plenty of your pain to go 'round
Am
Lord knows that everybody's got a cross to bear
Dm
And I see no use in tryin' to contrast and compare
Am
There's always someone being slaughtered
E Am
By a bigger stack of splinters somewhere
Am Dm Am
If a day should break in anger
Am E
Patience weak and temper strong
Am Dm Am
Put our able hands to labor
Am E Am
We will work through what went wrong
Am Dm Am
If a day should break in anger
Am E
Patience weak and temper strong
Am Dm Am
Put our able hands to labor
Am E Am
We will work through what went wrong
Am Dm Am
La, da da da, da da da, da da da
Am E
La, da da da, la da da, la da da
Am Dm Am
La, da da da, da da da, da da da
Am E Am
La, da da da, da, da, da
