All That You Have Is Your Soul Chords

(ver. 1)
Emmylou Harris
Verse:

A                D
Oh my mama told me
A                                   E
'Cause she say she learned the hard way
A                                D
She say she wanna spare the children
D
She say don't give or sell your soul away
       A             E            A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Chorus:

D 
So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
A
Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
D
Hunger only for a taste of justice
A
Hunger only for a world of truth
                    E            A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Verse:

D
Well I was a pretty young girl once
A
I had dreams I had high hopes
E
I married a man he stole my heart away
D
He gave his love but what a high price I paid
A            E            A
All that you have is your soul

D
Why was I such a young fool
A
Thought I'd make history 
Making babies was the best I could do
E
Thought I'd made something that could be mine forever
D
Found out the hard way one can't possess another
    A            E            A
And all that you have is your soul


Chorus:

D 
So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
A
Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
D
Hunger only for a taste of justice
A
Hunger only for a world of truth
                    E            A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Verse:

D
I thought, thought that I could find a way
A
To beat the system
To make a deal and have no debts to pay
E
I'd take it all, I'd take it all, I'd run away
D
Me for myself first class and first rate
    A            E            A
But all that you have is your soul

D
Here I am, I'm waiting for a better day
A
A second chance
A little luck to come my way
E
A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again
D
And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands
       A            E             A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Chorus:

D 
So don't be tempted by the shiny apple
A
Don't you eat of a bitter fruit
D
Hunger only for a taste of justice
A
Hunger only for a world of truth
                    E            A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Verse:  
             
A                D
Oh my mama told me
A                                   E
'Cause she say she learned the hard way
A                                D
She say she wanna spare the children
D
She say don't give or sell your soul away
       A             E            A
'Cause all that you have is your soul


Coda:

A            D
All that you have
A            D
All that you have
A            E
All that you have
        A
Is your soul
