The Weight Chords

   
I found the other version here on UG good, but it never used 
a capo so here's my version, made by studying live 
performances of this fantastic version of a good song!

    Gm   Bm   C  Zm#7
e|--3----2----0----3--|
B|--3----3----1----2--|
G|--0----4----0----3--|
D|--0----4----2----0--|
A|--2----2----3----2--|
E|--3----2----3----2--|

I believe theese are the only chords playing in the song. 
In the intro part and after the "Put the load right on me" 
When it sounds like 5 chords, you get fooled by (
Hugely underrated) Andy playin the tabs ;) So there 
youre only supposed to play Gm and C.

Gm              Bm               C                 Gm
I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' 'bout half past dead
Gm              Bm           C            Gm
I just need some place where I can lay my head
Gm              Bm                     C             Gm
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
Gm                  Bm                  C              Gm
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No" was all he said

Gm      Zm#7      C
Take a load off Fanny
Gm      Zm#7      C
Take a load for free
Gm      Zm#7     C 
Take a load off Fanny

And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Gm, C (finnish with two C hits, the rest Gm)

Picked up my bag, went lookin' for a place to hide
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown"
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around"

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just old Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day
"Well Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favour, son, won't you stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog
He said, "I will fix your rack, if you'll take Jack, my dog"
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, I'm a peaceful man"
He said, "That's OK, just feed him when you can"

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me

Catch a cannon ball now, to take me down the line
My bag is sinking low and I do believe it's time
To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone

Take a load off Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off Fanny
And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me
