Verse 1
[A] I'm a sober [Am]girl
[G] Not for any good [A]reason
[A] I found myself on this [Am]road I'm on
[G] It felt a lot like [A]treason
[C#m] To my last [A]girlfriends
[C#m] Who could never [A]understand
[C#m] When it comes to [A]love I wanted [E]purity
Verse 2
I felt the [A]loneliness of the [Am]world
[G] In the city so I [A]got out of there
[A] I found myself at the [Am]end of a long dirt [G]road

Chorus
[F#m] When I was [A]young
[D] In every [A]camptown [D]song I [F#m]sung

Who was [A]able, who was [E]free

[A] Free of this manmade [Am]world
[G] And all the bargains we [A]made with fear
[A] That slowly whittle us [Am]down to nothing

[C#m] But I found [A]someone
[C#m] Who was still standing when [A]it was done
[C#m] And with the purest [A]heart
She said these words to[E] me
