[C] [Am]

[F]
[C] Saddest girl in the whole wide world I met her on the corner
With no regards for figurancy, no respect for civil order
How young are you I ask her,
[F] how old [C] are you young lady
I'm much older than you think, [G] cause I have [C] seven babies
Where are those who keep these kids while you're out on the party
I live where the house is at the church of 12th and Harding
The [F] people there [C] they know me well, [F] they ask me [C] very few questions
And if a child should pass before they make [G] their way there, pray them [C] into hell
No
[F] love [C] and no lover,
[G] a murder of [C] crows did say
[F] We soon [C] will discover,
[G] a coffin will wear [C] a brass band
[Dm] [C]
So where's the father of these kids, does he help here [F] ever
[C] I have no idea where he is, he don't show his face, he knows better
Can I help you go tonight, [F] it will be [C] my pleasure
And make sure that you arrive alright, [G] now we could [C] leave together
She [F] [C]
said no I don't need your company and I don't want your pity
You'd be wise just to go away and leave me here where I'm sitting
[F] Is there nothing [C] I can do for you, [F] now it's time to [C] scatter
Why do you think there's something wrong with me, [G] there's nothing [C] really that matters
[F] No love and [C] no lover, [G] a murder of [Dm] crows [C] did say
[F] [C] We soon will discover, [G] a coffin will wear a [C] brass band

find myself where life can go, I find myself each morning
All the duties of this world fell on my shoulders without warning
[F] I make new [C] plans, don't do I care,
[F] for the future [C] calls tomorrow
This world I've seen is never fair, [G] so just leave me here with [C] my sorrow
[F] No love [C] and no lover, [G] a murder of crows [C] did say
[F] We soon will [C] discover, [G] a coffin will wear a [C] brass band
No love and no lover, [G] a murder of crows [C] did say
We soon will discover, [G] a coffin will [C] wear a brass band
Wear a brass band
