Title: Schizophrenia's Weighted Me Down
Artist: Cat Power
Album: This was the B side of the single *Nude as the News* (1996)

Written by: Alexander “Skip” Spence, Thurston Moore, Kim Gordon

This song is sort of a mash up of *Weighted Down (the Prison Song)

by Alexander “Skip” Spence; and *Schizophrenia* by Sonic Youth

[Chorus]
A
Weighted down by possessions
A E
Weighted down by the gun
E D A
Waited down by the river for you to come

[Verse]
A E
Whose socks were you darning, oh my darling
D A
While I was away, away for too long?
A E
I went away to see an old friend of mine
D A
Sister came over and knew she was out of her mind
A E
She says Jesus has a twin who don't know nothing about sin
D A
She was half crazy and out of her mind

[Chorus]
A
Weighted down by possessions
A E
Weighted down with a gun
E D A
Waiting down by the river for you to come

[Verse]
A E
Her light eyes were dancing she is insane
D A
Her brother says she's just a bitch on a golden chain
A
She keeps coming closer saying
E D A
I can feel it in my bones, schizophrenia is taking me home

[Chorus]
A
Weighted down by possessions
A E
I’m Weighted down with my gun
E D A
I’m waiting down by the river for you to come

[Outro]
A E D A
