	        SACK FULL OF STONES 
 
Intro: E A E B7 B7 E 
 
(B7)I used to (E)be the kind of guy 
				 
I could laugh as well as (A)cry 
	 				 
With a (E)heart feather-soft and summer - (B7)warm 
		 
Since you've (E)left me I've been faced 
				     
With emptiness that's been re(A)placed 
					       
With a (E)heart that's hard and heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones 
 
 
(B7)I never (E)thought I'd ever see 
					 
The man my mirror is showing (A)me 
		 
Lord I (E)must have aged ten years 
			 
Since you've been (B7)gone 
		 
The longest (E)mile you'll ever crawl 
			     
Is the one after you (A)fall 
							 
Draggin' (E)round a heart that's heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones 
 
 
Chorus: 
		 
With the (A)world upon my shoulders 
	   	 
And my (E)feelings on my sleeve 
		   
Every time I (A)close my (E)eyes at night 
		      
All I (F#)do is watch you (B7)leave 
					    
But by (E)far the biggest curse of being left a(A)lone 
						   
Is draggin' a(E)round a heart that's heavy 
 
as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones 
 
 
(B7)Well I tried (E)turning to the bottle 
				 
But the bottle turned on (A)me 
 
I've tried (E)everything 
					   
But nothing sets your memory (B7)free 
		 
I'm serving (E)life here in a prison 
				 
That we once called a (A)home 
	  
With a (E)heart that's cold and heavy as a (B7)sack full of (E)stones 
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS: 
 
'Ja well - You won't catch the big one if you don't throw your line in'
