[Intro 1]
[Em][G][Bm][A][D][A][Bm]
[A][D][A][Bm][F#sus4]
[F#]

[Verse 1]
And [Em]he sits beside the foun[B]tain
And
with his [Em]head bowed down don't [A]look
around at the gray [D]steel and the
con[A]crete a [Bm]man has never known a c[Asus4]older
home with 50 [A]cents for burgundy a paper
bag [Asus4]that hold[A]s a change [Bm]of socks and a
Bible that's too poor [F#]to hog and I
I [Em]looked into his eye[B]s.
[Em]They were blue like mine.
I [A]re cognized the hol[D]low, sunken feel[A]ing
like some [Bm]work of art [Asus4]they painted
[A]to hang upon the wall.
As we gathered round to praise the
[Bb]honesty [Bm]of one man's
lonely [F#]misery [F#sus4]an d every[F#] heart [G]that ever
broke one [Gm]man's dreams a heavy [C]load that
[D]died from an overdose of on [A]the [G]road
I [D]gave [Asus4]the man s[G]ome[D] mo[Asus4]ney and[G][Em][B]
[Em]wished him well as my [A]eyes fell to his [D]feet, the bottom of
[A]my body wrapped [Bm]up inside
such [Asus4]ragged clothes
[D]that I fel[A]t like a millionaire
with a little more,
but rich, so rich [F#]in l[B]ove.
[Bm]And no one gives a damn fo[F#sus4]r him.[F#]
And I [Em]hope that he finds
[B]Je sus, [Em]or a bed tonight,
or an[A]other drink.
I'd [D]take him home, but you [A]see now,
[Bm]I don't li[Asus4]ve alone, even i[A]f I did.
Some other reason [F#]would [Bm]make me think
of the places that I [F#sus4]must go.[F#]
And [G]every heart that ever broke,
[Gm]one man's dreams,
There's a heavy [C]load [D]that died from
an overdose [G]along [A]the road.
Sits [G]all [D]alone.[Asus4][G][D][Asus4][G][Em][B]
[Em]
[D][A][D][A][Bm][A][D][A]
[Asus4][A][Bm][F#][F#sus4][F#]
And [Em]maybe if he [B]got a shave [Em]and washed
the blood off [A]of his face
[D]and changed his suit he'd be [A]some use [C#]to this co[Bm]untry
this prosper[Asus4]ity but he's bleed[A]ing in his
[Asus4]soul they[A] haven't found a cure for that you [F#]see exce[Bm]pt
for maybe [F#sus4]bur gundy an d e[F#]very he[G]art that
ever broke.
One [Gm]man's dreams,
a heavy [C]load [D]that died from an [G]overdose [A]of on -the -road
sits [G]all [D]alone.[G][D][G][D][G]
