D G This cruel country has driven me down, A D G A Teased me and lied, teased me and lied, D G I've only sad stories to tell to this town, A A7 D My dreams have withered, and ...died! G F#m Em Once I was bending the ...tops of the trees, F#m Em Em7 A Kind thoughts in my head, kind voices to hear!

D G Then I took up with a girl from the west, A D G A Played run and hide, played run and hide, D G Count one to ten, and she's gone like the rest, A A7 D My dreams have withered and died! G F#m Em If I was a butterfly, lived for a day, F#m Em Em7 A I could be free, just blowing a - way!
