Version 1
[Verse 1]
C F
No use crying, talking to a stranger,
C G G7
Naming the sorrows you've seen.
C F
Too many sad times, too many bad times,
C G7 C
And nobody knows what you mean.
[Chorus]
C F
Ah, but if somehow you could pack up your sorrows,
C G
And give them all to me,
C F
You would lose them, I know how to use them,
C G7 C
Give them all to me.
[Verse 2]
C F
No use rambling, walking in the shadows,
C G G7
Trailing a wandering star.
C F
No one beside you, no one to hide you,
C G7 C
Nobody knows where you are.
[Chorus]
C F
Ah, but if somehow you could pack up your sorrows,
C G
And give them all to me,
C F
You would lose them, I know how to use them,
C G7 C
Give them all to me.
[Verse 3]
C F
No use gambling, running in the darkness,
C G G7
Looking for a spirit that's free.
C F
Too many wrong times, too many long times,
C G7 C
Nobody knows what you see.
[Chorus]
C F
Ah, but if somehow you could pack up your sorrows,
C G
And give them all to me,
C F
You would lose them, I know how to use them,
C G7 C
Give them all to me.
[Verse 4]
C F
No use roaming, lying by the roadside,
C G G7
Seeking a satisfied mind.
C F
Too many highways, too many byways,
C G7 C
And nobody's walking behind.
[Chorus]
C F
Ah, but if somehow you could pack up your sorrows,
C G
And give them all to me,
C F
You would lose them, I know how to use them,
C G7 C
Give them all to me.
