Don't You Cry For Me - Acoustic
Are you ready? (Yeah)
Hope got my hands tied 'round my back
And time put a rope around my head
And hung from the rafters of my fear
Dark in the eyes, I try and face the world, I can't bear to
My knees hit the ground and my hands start shaking
Old feelings from new faces
A rope on the floor and a poor man hanging
Please, help me chop this tree down
Hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
And I've seen an ocean run away
I'm torn from the truth that holds my song
Well, down in the grave where I belong
Oh, what a ride, I identify my devil
Wings to the sky on a run from trouble
With my own hands, no shovel
I dug through the ground, now I'm hangin' above
Please, help me chop this tree down
Or hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
Down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved finally
Where the sun went down
It set the sky on fire
I saw an angel fly
I never felt so high
Well, please, help me chop this tree down
And hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
Oh, don't you cry for me
Oh, don't you cry for me
Hope got my hands tied 'round my back
And time put a rope around my head
And hung from the rafters of my fear
Dark in the eyes, I try and face the world, I can't bear to
My knees hit the ground and my hands start shaking
Old feelings from new faces
A rope on the floor and a poor man hanging
Please, help me chop this tree down
Hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
And I've seen an ocean run away
I'm torn from the truth that holds my song
Well, down in the grave where I belong
Oh, what a ride, I identify my devil
Wings to the sky on a run from trouble
With my own hands, no shovel
I dug through the ground, now I'm hangin' above
Please, help me chop this tree down
Or hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
Down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved
Well, down by the grave that the law man laid
When the gravel got paved finally
Where the sun went down
It set the sky on fire
I saw an angel fly
I never felt so high
Well, please, help me chop this tree down
And hold me from underneath
Words never once cut me down
Oh, don't you cry for me
Oh, don't you cry for me
Oh, don't you cry for me
