Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You never asked me to
I didn't think I could
I put that weight on me
Couldn't carry a cross of wood
Couldn't carry a cross of wood
[Verse 2]
I tried to pull you up
Turns out I wasn't enough
I always let you down
Who the hell did I think I was?
[Chorus]
And oh, Susannah
Don't you go cryin' for me, it's all gettin' better
I couldn't be who you want me to be, thought I was a savior
But I was a fool on drunken behavior
Why did I believe I could save you, darlin'
Without killin' me?
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
We go together so bittersweet
Like misery and company
And I know you can't say no
I don't really wanna let you go
But I gotta leave, so you can be free
That's what you really need
[Chorus]
And oh, Susannah
Don't you go cryin' for me, it's all gettin' better
But I couldn't bе who you want me to be, thought I was a savior
I was a fool on drunken behavior
Why did I believe I could save you, darlin'
Without killin' me?
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Instrumental]
Ladies and gentlemen, over here to my right
Coming from Stillwater, Oklahoma
Mr. Austin Yankunas on lead guitar
[Bridge]
'Cause I was a problem
Only tryna be the cure
I was a problem
Only tryna be the cure
I was a problem
Only tryna be the cure
I was a problem
I was a problem
I was a problem
I was a problem
[Chorus]
And oh, Susannah
Don't you go cryin' for me, it's all gettin' better
But I couldn't be who you want me to be, thought I was a savior
But I was a fool on drunken behavior
Why did I believe I could save you, darlin'?
Oh, why did I believe I could save you, darlin'
Without killin' me?
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
