verse 1
C
sparrow and wolf lay as still as the blades of the grass
Am F C
like worn leather boots, of colour and size that would last
C
caught them a lark in a trap, and each held a wing
Am F C
then they tore it apart, before that small bird could sing
C
confused by the wind, bruised by the size of the rain
Am F C
she turned in to him, begged for the light to remain
C
but plans have been made, all the furniture sold
Am F C
so store up your hate, use it for warmth when you're cold

for I have seen no joy, only danger,
C
I see no joy, only strangers,
G F
I see no joy, see no joy in this world

lonesome roads, men who travel them,
G F
will not know, will not know of your ways

F
still I have, seen no joy, only dangers, I
C
see no joy, only strangers, I
G F
see no joy, see no joy in this world,
you should choose to go, please remember what
C
you have learned, from the little bird,
G F
always dear, always dear to my heart
