[Chorus]
D G
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
D A A7
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
D D7
I've been living too fast
G
And I've been living too long
D A D
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
[Verse 1]
D G
This big ol' world sure got me running 'round
D A A7
I heard a voice that said, "Just settle down"
D D7
And with the moonlight as my guide
G
And with this feeling deep inside
D A D
I know now that I am homeward bound
D G
As I wander through the pines, the whisperings, they tell
D A A7
Of the many before me who tried and fell
D D7
Seeking fortune and ways
G
To get to glory days
D A D
Looking for a place in this old world
[Chorus]
D G
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
D A A7
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
D D7
I've been living too fast
G
And I've been living too long
D A D
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone

[Verse 2]
D G
Desert roads, desert plains
D A A7
I have seen so much pain
D D7 G
Now I see into the eyes of a girl
D A D
No more, no more, cruel world
D G
Dusty trail saw a vapor light
D A A7
Was it mirage? Don't know but it seemed right
D D7
I felt mission I felt trust
G
I knew that then I must
D A D
Go to her, away from this cruel world
[Chorus]
D G
Cruel, cruel world, must I go on?
D A A7
Cruel, cruel world, I'm moving on
D D7
I've been living too fast
G
And I've been living too long
D A D
Cruel, cruel world, I'm gone
