[Verse]
G D
When I walk beside her
C
I am the better man
G
When I look to leave her
D
I always stagger back again
D
Once I built an ivory tower
C
So I can worship from above
G
When I climb down to be set free
D
She took me in again
[Chorus]
D
There’s a big,
Am
a big hard sun
G
Beatin’ on the big people
D
In the big hard world
[Verse]
D
When she comes down to greet me
C
She is mercy at my feet
G
When I see her pin her charm
D
She just throws it back at me
D
Once I dug an early grave
C
to find a better land
G
She just Smiled and laughed at me
D
and took her bruise back again
[Chorus]
D
There's a big
Am
A big hard sun
G
Beaten’ on the big people
D
In the big hard world
D
There's a big
Am
A big hard sun
G
Beaten’ on the big people
D
In the big hard world
[Verse]
D
Once I stood to lose her
C
When I saw what I had done
G
Bound down and flew away the hours
D
Of her garden and her sun
D
So I tried to warn her
C
I turned to see her weep
G
40 days and 40 nights
D
And it's still coming down on me
[Chorus]
D
There's a big
Am
A big hard sun
G
Beaten’ on the big people
D
In the big hard world
