Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The days are piling up and I don't know that I can take it

And freedom by design is so far gone I'll never make

And everything's so heavy that I think I want to leave it

And it's weight that I don't need I think it's time that I relieved it

Chorus

Heavy and I'm leavin', heavy and I'm gone

It's heavy and I'm leavin' here, so long

Heavy and I'm leavin', heavy and I'm gone

It's heavy and I'm leavin' here, so long

Well outside ain't so good today it's windy and it's raining

And it's been so bad so long that I can't say I see it changing

The talk that I've been subject to seems mostly unrelated

And these blues have been allowed to run/continue unabated

Chorus

Heavy and I'm leavin', heavy and I'm gone

It's heavy and I'm leavin' here, so long

Heavy and I'm leavin', heavy and I'm gone

It's heavy and I'm leavin' here, so long

Discouraged fingers with no follow through

No courage lingers like you want it to

Discouraged fingers with no follow through

Discouraged fingers with no love for you

Well these hands have always been too slow in the past

Reluctance greeted nearly every task

Now my old heart tells me he wants it done fast

Discouraged fingers they resist to the last

Chorus
