Capo: 3
capo 3rd fret its just c f and g the whole song listen to it to get the timing
intro c hammer middle finger
CPick me up softly, I don't know the shape that I'm in
FI dropped through the windows and down through the buildings
And up toG the front door again
CThere was a gunfight out in the moonlight
To settle the matters at hand
FSo pick me up stranger, pick me up softly
GI don't know the shape that CI'm in
Chorus:
CAnd I did my best with my time in the West
FAnd I tried not to leave anyone in distress
GAnd I have stood tall yeah Cand I never lied
FThat's a lie
GBut I surely tried
CTo do everytFhing I could doG right
CPick me up softly, I don't know how much I've been hurt
FOne bullet missed me, the other one kissed me
GAnd left me to die in the dirt
CThey killed every last man and shot down my Suzanne
FIt's over whatever it's worth
GSo pick me up stranger, pick me up softly
CI don't know how much I've been hurt F G
Repeat chorus
CPick me up softly, I don't know long I have left
FOh I am not hurtin', but death is a-certain
There's a bullet thaGt lays in my chest
CI'm flooded with memories and people and sweet dreams
FAnd words to my favourite songs
And I'll buy the last round if you lay my head down
GAnd sing one for me when I'm gone
Repeat chorus
