Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Poor little thing

You're such a cliche

And I can't bring myself

To look you in the eye

Oh how badly you've been treated

You've been messed with and defeated

And you never thought to ask somebody why

You can't go from town to town

Letting everybody down

And not expect someone there to catch up with you

You can't go from place to place

Breaking hearts to save your face

And still be surprised when the consequences hit you

Poor little thing

I'd love to help you

To point you toward Jesus or something else

But everyone who ever got close to you

Got crucified and I have to save myself

You can't go from town to town

Letting everybody down

And not expect someone there to catch up with you

You can't go from place to place

Breaking hearts to save your face

And still be surprised when the consequences hit you

(Banjo solo - sorry no idea!)

You can't go from town to town

Letting everybody down

And not expect someone there to catch up with you

You can't go from place to place

Breaking hearts to save your face

And still be surprised when the consequences hit you
