TOWNES VAN ZANDT
CAPO 3
Am
HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,
Am
DON�T LEAVE A THING BEHIND
F Am E Am
I DON�T WANT NOTHIN��� I DON�T NEED NOTHIN�
TAKE CARE INTO THE HALL,
AND IF YOU SEE MY FRIENDS
TELL THEM I�M FINE��� NOT USING NOTHIN�
ALMOST BURNED OUT MY EYES,
THREW MY EARS DOWN TO THE FLOOR
I DIDN�T SEE NOTHIN��� I DIDN�T HEAR NOTHIN�
I STOOD THERE LIKE A BLOCK OF STONE
KNOWIN� ALL I HAD TO KNOW
AND NOTHIN� MORE��MAN, THAT�S NOTHIN�
AS BROTHERS OUR TROUBLES ARE
LOCKED IN EACH OTHERS ARMS
AND YOU BETTER PRAY�� THEY NEVER FIND YOU
YOUR BACK AIN�T STRONG ENOUGH
FOR BURDENS DOUBLEFOLD.
THEY�D CRUSH YOU DOWN��. DOWN INTO NOTHIN�
BEING BORN IS GOING BLIND
AND BUYING DOWN A THOUSAND TIMES
TO ECHOES STRUNG�� ON PURE TEMPTATION
SORROW AND SOLITUDE
THESE ARE PRECIOUS THINGS
AND THE WORDS��..THAT ARE WORTH REMEMBERIN�
HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,
DON�T LEAVE A THING BEHIND
I DON�T WANT NOTHIN��� I DON�T NEED NOTHIN�
