Burden Down

F#m F#m
Bm D
F#m C#m

[Verse 1]
      F#m  A           Bm         D
I'm a river, I keep running on
       F#m   A       Bm              D
I'm a pillar you got used to leaning on
    F#m                   Em
Underneath it, there's a person
      Bm            D
I'm a woman and I'm hurting
         C#m             Bm             C#m
Cause I feel like I'm holding up the world

[Chorus]
        A              F#m
When I lay this burden down
             D             Bm
Who's gonna take it up for me
          A             F#m
When you run me in the ground
           D                 Bm
That's the day you're gonna see
              A    Bm  F#m
For all I've done I'm alone
      Em    D                    Bm
Just for a moment can I not be strong
              A             G
So how 'bout now oh can I lay
             D
This burden down

[Verse 2]
    F#m             Bm        D
I deliver each and every time
       F#m            Bm                  D
I'm a giver, I don't think about what's mine
              F#m            Bm
You keep me asking, you keep taking
           Bm       D
And that's no reciprocation
   C#m              Bm           C#m
I shouldn't have to do this by myself

[Chorus]
        A              F#m
When I lay this burden down
             D             Bm
Who's gonna take it up for me
          A             F#m
When you run me in the ground
           D                 Bm
That's the day you're gonna see
              A    Bm  F#m
For all I've done I'm alone
      Em    D                    Bm
Just for a moment can I not be strong
              A             G
So how 'bout now oh can I lay
             D
This burden down

[Bridge]
       F#m  Em           Bm    D
I'm a river, I keep running on
        Bm   Em       Bm             D
I'm a pillar, you're used to leaning on
C#m             D  C#m
Just this once, oh just this once

[Chorus]
(Acapella)
N.C.
When I lay this burden down
Who's gonna take it up for me
When you run me in the ground
That's the day you're gonna see
N.C.
For all I've done I'm alone
Just for a moment can I not be strong
So how 'bout now oh can I lay
This burden down
