[G] I [G]
[E] [F#]
[E] [G] had a shoe full of holes when you first [F#] took me [F#m] in
The [G#] passage you [G]
led [D] wasn't straight to your bed
There was no [A]
chance to sleep in
And you [F#m] showed me who [F] I [E] was running to
As [F#m] if I had no heart
[E] [B]
[F#] Old [D] Mary, she knows how streets [E] stare like [F#m] old friends
The [A]
flat on the [D] ground, there's no further down
There's [A] no place to sit in
She come [F#m] in, leaves them outside the [E] door
Tear off the [F#m] paper, tear off the carpet, off [E] the floor
[B] [A]
[G#] I [D] know you're hurting, [E]
[D] and I can't [F#m] be there for you
[B]
[A] I know [D] you're hurting, [E]
[D] and I can't [F#] be there no more
[B]
[A] I [G] had a shoe full of holes when you [A] first took me in
I [G] had calluses, not sore, and [A] I'd like to keep them
It's a curtain of [G] sheep, get back up the street
There's nothing more [F#m] I can bring you
Think I'm scared of the [G] door, afraid of the floor
Well, I'll go [A] and walk right through
And [F#m] I'll show you [F#] who I've [E] been running from
It's [F#m] the feeling of waking, and [E] it's gone
[A]
[E] I [D] know you're hurting,
[E]
[D] and I can't [F#m] be there for you
[B]
[A] I [D] know you're hurting,

[E] [D]
[D]
[F#]
[E] my [G] feet, in those hot streets,
[E] there's a [F#m] light to pray
Flat on [G] the ground, there's no fear to doubt
There's [A] no one to see me
You [F#m] take a knee, leave some outside [B] your door
[E]
Tear out [F#m] the paper, tear out the carpet, out [E] some floor
[A]
[E] I know [D] you're hurting, [E]
[D] and I [F#m] can't be there for you
[F#]
[A] I know [D] you're hurting, [E]
[D] and I can't [F#m] be there no more
[F#]
[F#m] I [G] had a shoe full of holes when you [A] first took me in
I [G] had calluses, not sore, and [A] I'd like to keep them
So go to the [G] sheet, get back on the street
There's nothing more I can [F#m] bring to you
I'm scared of the [G] door, afraid of the floor
But I'll go [A] and walk right through
And [F#m] I'll show you who I've been [E] running from
It's [F#m] the feeling of waking, and [E] it's gone
