1.  We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin' for your change,

                              F                          C                          Dm

    The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange.

                             F                                  C                                 Dm

    He asked the man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes,

                F                        C                      Dm

    "Get a job, you fuckin' slob", 's all he replied.

                 F                              C                          Dm

    God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes,

                                          F                              C                     Dm

    'cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues.

  Dm                F                                         C                                    Dm

2.   Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom, who said he was in love,

                                                     F                      

    he said, "Don't worry about a thing baby doll,

                    C                                    Dm

     I'm the man you've been dreamin' of !"

                                  F                                 C                              Dm

    But three months later he said he won't date her or return her call,

                                           F                           C                              Dm

    And she swears, "God damn if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls!"

                                          F                    

    And she heads for the clinic,

                                      C                                    Dm

    and she gets some static walkin' through the doors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                               F                                     C

     They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner, 

                                     Dm

    and they call her a whore.

                  F                              C                         Dm

    God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes,

                                          F                             C                       Dm

    'cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose.

 

                            F                             C    - Dm

Dm                                                                            F

    I've seen a rich man beg, I've seen a good man sin,

                                          C

    I've seen a tough man cry.

Dm                                                           F                                    C

    I've seen a loser win, and a sad man grin, I heard an honest man lie.

Dm                                                                                   F

    I've seen the good side of bad, and the down side of up,

                                     C

    and everything between.

Dm                                                                           F

    I licked the silver spoon, drank from the golden cup,

                                     C

    smoked the finest green.

Dm                                                                     F

    I stroked daddies dimes at least a couple of times,

                                      C

    before I broke their heart.

Dm                                                                 F                                C

    You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   Dm ~                                   F                                   C

3.      I knew this kid named Max, he used to get fat stacks

                                         Dm

    out on the corner with drugs.

                                      F                                           C

    He liked to hang out late at night, liked to get shit faced, 

                                     Dm

    and keep pace with thugs.

                            F                                      C                          Dm

    Until late one night there was a big gun fight, Max lost his head,

                                    F                                   C                            Dm

    he pulled out his chrome .45, talked some shit, and wound up dead.

                                       F                                  C                       Dm

    Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of his pain,

                                                F                                            C

    you know it crumbles that way, at least that's what they say,

                                  Dm

    when you play the game 

                 F                               C                           Dm

    God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news,

                                          F                              C                   Dm

    'cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose.

 

                            F                              C    - Dm

Then you really might know what it's like,

                           F                             C    - Dm

then you really might know what it's like.

                            F                             C     ~

Then you really might know what it's like,

                 Dm       - F - C - Dm  .....

to have to lose.
