_ [Am] _ As I started down [G] the street one day, _ [Am] a man came up to me [G] and he did say,
_ [C] Can't spend your time [F] all alone, _
_ [C] I said what do you think [G] you know? _
_ [Am] In the winter of [G] my discontent, _ [Am] _ solace came and [G] solace quickly went.
_ [C] So I tried to [F] settle down _
_ [C] in some long [G] forgotten town, _
_ [Am] _ but I just could [G] not escape myself.
_ [Am] I probably could have [G] used a little help, _ [C] _ but as usual [F] I refused, _
_ [C] cause help to me always [G] just _ felt [Am] like abuse.
_ _ [F] _ _
Felt [Am] like abuse, _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [Am] so I put [G] myself a phone across, _ [Am] I made some noise but could [G] not get across.
[C] _ No one could hear [F] all my cries, _
_ [C] so I cut the rope [G] and apologized _ [Am] for all the damage [G] I had done. _
_ [Am] But I was just a friend [G] to _ everyone, [C] who just did not know [F] right from wrong, _
_ [C] which makes it easier [G] to get along.
[Am] _ When you're feeling [G] real low down, _
_ [Am] and kinda tired [G] of just hanging around.
[C] _ In the town of [F] Caroline, _
_ [C] _ I walked up and [G] down those, those [Am] power lines, _ _ [F] _ _
those [Am] power lines.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ Someone's hiding [G] underneath the stairs, _ [Am] I try to tell [G] myself that no one's there.
[C] But in the real [F] country dark, _
_ [C] _ someone's dying [G] underneath the stars.
[Am] So I could just say [G] fare thee well my friend, _ [Am] but just in case we [G] never meet again.
[C] I'm hiding something [F] in the ground, _ [C] and only you know [G] where it is.
It [Am] can be found, _ _ [F] _ _
it [Am] can be found, _ [G] oh yeah. _
