[Verse 1]
[D]Pick me up softly,
I don't [G]know [D]the shape that I'm in

[A]And up to the front door [D]again
There was a gunfight out in the moonlight
To settle the matters [G]at hand
So [A]pick me up stranger,
pick me up softly
I don't know the shape that I'm in
[D]

And left me to die in [D]the dirt

I don't know how much I've been [D]hurt

that lays in my [D]chest
I'm flooded with memories
and people and sweet dreams
