I worked so [Ab]
[Dbm] hard, [A] I got blisters on my skin.
[E] Then I run and then I let down on [B] the light, make I'm [E] burning down.
My woman, she let me, [Ab] my woman, run away [Abm] [Dbm] when she let [A] me be.
Once you take [E] a sip, drinking it around, we're gonna, [B]
[Abm] gonna drive you to your [E] grave.
So [Dbm] lay me down, [Abm] lay me down, [A] where that snow [E] hits the ground.
Ain't a better woman, Lord, [B]
in [E] this world.
[Ab]
[E] [Dbm] [A]
[E] [B]
[E]
I took one last look at [Ab] her and I went on down those tracks.
[Dbm] I pulled my hat up, threw my [A] head and re-skinned through my pack
[E] to fall inside that bottle, [B] Lord, and never [E] turn back.
So [Dbm] lay me down, [Ab] lay me down, [A] where that snow [E] hits the ground.
Ain't a better woman, [B] Lord, [E] in this world.
[Ab]
[Dbm] [A]
[E] That
[B] [E]
dream floating [Ab] beneath, didn't I know a [Abm] time.
[Dbm] Gave down in the morning, [A] he would get on that line.
[E] His body lying broken [B] with this letter [E] by his side.
Said, dig my grave, [Ab] go wide and [Abm] deep, [Dbm] place that marble slab [A] at my head and feet
[E] and bury me with that bottle, [B] Lord, the [E] devil I may be.
And lay [Dbm] me [Abm] down, lay me down, where [A] that snow [E] hits the ground.
Ain't a better woman, [B] Lord, in [E] this world.
And lay [Dbm] me [Ab] down, lay me down, where [A] that snow [E] hits the ground.
Ain't a better woman, [B] Lord, in [E] this world.
[Abm] So lay me down.
