The Weight

C            Em        F        
I pulled into Nazareth, feeling 
            C
'bout half past dead
           Em          F          
I just need place where I can lay 
  C
my head
                Em              F 
"Mister, can you tell me where a 
               C
man might find a bed"
                Em             F  
He just grinned, shook my hand, 
             C      F C
"No" was all he said

[Chorus]

C     C/B       F
Take a load off, Fanny
C     C/B      F

C     C/B       F

C             Em          F     
I picked up my bag, I went 
                 C
looking for a place to hide
          Em                   
When I saw Carmen and the devil 
F               C
walking side by side
               Em        F        
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, 
     C
let's go downtown"
          Em                 
She said, "I got to go, but my

friend can stick around"

Go down, Miss Moses, there's

nothing you can say

It's just old Luke, and Luke's

waiting on the judgement day

"Well, Luke, my friend, what about
           C
 young Anna Lee"
                 Em                
He said, "Do me a favor, son, won't
