NB: When you come across the asterix (*) on the second line,
play this:
1 2 3 4
--------5h6p5-----
------------------
I know it usually means a harmonic, but here it means a quick
hammeron followed by a pulloff (an upper mordent in musical
terms). I used the asterix to save space and to keep the beats
even on the page.
Everything else is as usual,
h meaning hammeron,
p meaning pulloff.
Also when you come to the end of the verse and the chorus, you
will come across something like this: F (Dshape).
This means play an F Chord, but with a D Barre chord shape.
This is how it sounds in the song.
Em(Am) means exactly the same thing; play the Em Chord
with an Am Barre Chord shape.

Dm(Am) D(A)
They bought and sold you.

Dm(Am) D(A)
You were perverted too

I don't know how you were inverted
Dm(Am) D(A)
No one elated you.
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you
Verse 2:
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one elated you
Verse 3:
I look from the wings at the play you are staging
While my guitar gently weeps
As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging
Still my guitar gently weeps
