Emmylou Harris - Lost unto this world

^CHmm ^Ehmm ^Fhmm ^Chmm, hmm ^Ehmm ^Fhmm ^Chmm I was ^Conce some mother's ^Edarlin', some ^Fdaddy's little ^Cgirl More precious than the ^Eruby, more ^Fcherished than the ^Cpearl My ^Eheart was full of ^Cmercy and my ^Eforehead full of ^Ccurl ^DmNow I am ^Fnothing and am lost unto this world

I am ^Clost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld I am lost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld

They ^Cherded me like ^Ecattle, ^Fcut me down like ^Ccorn Took me from my ^Ebabies be- ^Ffore they could be ^Cborn You can ^Eblame it on the ^Cfamine, you can ^Eblame it on the ^Cwar You can ^Dmblame it on the ^Fdevil, it don't matter anymore

I am ^Clost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld I am lost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld

I was ^Ctortured in the ^Edesert, I was ^Fraped out on the ^Cpain I was murdered by the ^Ehigh way and my ^Fcries went up in ^Cvain My ^Eblood is on the ^Cmountain, my ^Eblood is on the ^Csand My ^Dmblood runs in the ^Friver that now washes thru their hands

I am ^Clost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld I am lost unto this ^Eworld, I am ^Flost unto this ^Cworld

Oh, ^Fcan I get no witness this un- ^Choly tale to ^Etell Was God the ^Dmonly one there ^Fwatching and weeping as l fell

^CHmm ^Ehmm ^Fhmm ^Chmm, hmm ^Ehmm ^Fhmm ^Chmm Oh, ^Cyou among the ^Eliving, will you re- ^Fmember me at ^Call Will you write my ^Ename out with a ^Fsingle finger ^Cscrawl A- ^Ecross a broken ^Cwindow in some ^Elong forgotten ^Cwall That goes ^Dmstretching out for- ^Fever where the ^Fb9tears of heaven fall
