Intro
ah-aa-ah
Verse1
D (G) (D)
sparrow and wolf lay as still as the blades of the grass
like worn leather boots, of color and size that would last
caught them a lark in a trap, and each held a wing
then they tore it apart, before that small bird could sing
oh-oo-oh
oh-oo-oh
Verse2
D (G) (D)
confused by the wind, bruised by the size of the rain
she turned in to him, begged for the light to remain
but plans have been made, all the furniture sold
so store up your hate, use it for warmth when you're cold
Chorus1
for I have seen no joy, only danger,
I see no joy, only strangers,
I see no joy; see no joy in this world.
should you, choose to go, please be careful of
lonesome roads, men who travel them
will not know, will not know of your ways.
Interlude
oh-oo-oh

Chorus2
still I have, seen no joy, only dangers, I
see no joy, only strangers, I
see no joy, see no joy in this world
you should choose to go, please remember what
you have learned, from the little bird
always dear, always dear to my heart
