Mean Mary - I've Been Down


CAPO: 2nd Fret



[Intro]
D G C G C G D G

[Chorus]

I’ve been down
C G
Like a sparrow on the ground
D
I’ve been lost
C D
On a river that won’t flow
G
I’ve been hurt
C G
Well, I’ve been weeping, sad and lonely
C G
For some loving arms to hold me
D D7
I’ve been down
N.C. G
But not that low


[Verse 1]

I lost my home, I have no pillow
D
I make my bed under the willow
G
An old wool coat hung o’er my shoulder
C
The nights are long and getting colder
G D7
Oh, I’ve been down, I’ve been down


[Verse 2]
G
You tell jokes and you have dinner
D
But so does every poor born sinner
G
Oh, you have fame and you have money
C
Enough to buy you sugar and honey
G D7
Lay your money down, lay your money down


[Chorus]
G
Well, I’ve been down
C G
Like a sparrow on the ground
D
I’ve been lost
C D
On a river that won’t flow
G
I’ve been hurt
C G
I’ve been weeping, sad and lonely
C G
For some loving arms to hold me
D D7
I’ve been down
N.C. G
But not that low


[Verse 3]
G
My shirts too big my boots are battered
D
My skirts too long it’s worn and tattered
G
I ain’t got no fine clothes for Sunday
C
And I’ll look just as poor on Monday
G D7
Oh, I’ve been down, I’ve been down


[Verse 4]
G
You have everything folks desire
D
You have anyone you want for hire
G
So you think I will wear your red gown
C
If you lay your money down
G D7
Lay your money down, lay your money down


[Chorus]
G
Well, I’ve been down
C G
Like a sparrow on the ground
D
I’ve been lost
C D
On a river that won’t flow
G
I’ve been hurt
C G
And I’ve been weeping, sad and lonely
C G
For some loving arms to hold me
D D7
I’ve been down
N.C. G
But not that low


[Instrumental]
G C G D C D G C G C G D D7 G


[Chorus]

Well, I’ve been down
C G
Like a sparrow on the ground
D
I’ve been lost
C D
On a river that won’t flow
G
I’ve been hurt
C G
And I’ve been weeping, sad and lonely
C G
For some loving arms to hold me
D D7
I’ve been down, well, I’ve been down___
N.C. G
But not that low
