The Weight

A               C#m         
 I pulled into Nazareth, just 
 D                      A
feelin' about half past dead;
               C#m          D     
I just need some place where I can
       A
 lay my head.
                      C#m          
"Mister, can you tell me where a 
   D                 A
man might find a bed?"
                    C#m            
He just grinned and shook my hand, 
    D                      A
and "No!", was all he said.

E        D
load for free;
A       E        D

A              C#m          D   
I picked up my bag, I went 
                   A
lookin' for a place to hide;
A               C#m            D
When I saw Carmen and the Devil 
              A
walkin' side by side.
A               C#m          D  
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, 
               A
let's go downtown."
A               C#m          D  
She said, "I gotta go, but 
                  A
m'friend can stick around."
