Burden - Amos Lee
Mountains of Sorrow, Rivers of Song.
Capo 3rd Fret
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A
Oh I just worry more than I'd like to
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A7 D (C) D
Please forgive me if I've weighed on you
D A
For so long I have lived amongst the shadows
A D (C) D
Waiting for the sun to break on through
D D7 G
Oh it's time I cast my oars and head out on these shores
D A7 D (C) D
And find some place where I can start anew
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A
Oh I just worry more than I'd like to
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A7 D(C)G
Please forgive me if I've weighed on you
G
Oh forgive if I've weighed upon your back
D A7
It's so heavy already without me
G
Going ahead into this abyss and find my own way out of this
A A7
So you can walk ahead more easily
Interlude: D D7 G D A D D7 G D A7 D(C)G
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A
But you're the light that is guiding me through
D D7 G
I never meant to be a burden
D A7 D(C)G
Please forgive me if I've weighed on you
D A7 D(C)G
Please forgive me if I've weighed on you
D A7 D(C)G
Please forgive me if I've weighed on you
