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
