The move from C (frets 1 and 3) to F (frets 8 and 10) in the first bar above is a big
jump up the fret board with string changes. It may require a bit of practice to play initially.
Chords and lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Dear sister can you help me lie?
I've told the truth so many years,
But no one seems to want to hear that,
I'm not someone else inside.
I've been along this lonely road,
Looks like I'm not coming home,
(Ending)
But I....don't mind,
Please don't cry.
