[Ab]If you see me walkin' down the street, better get out my way.
I'm a real king-hitter, always have my say.
If you're lookin' for a heavy time, best you don't come around.
Or else you'll get your heavy six feet of solid ground.
[C#]I don't like touble but if troubles the name of your game.[D]
[Eb]You know where you can find me boy, everybody knows my name.
I'm the [E]black eyed, the [F#]black eyed, the black eyed [Ab]bruiser.
[Ab]I used to be a peaceful man of flowers and love.
I believed in my soul and the good lord above.
But I was forced to change my tune, my candles and grace.
By the power of the dollar and the kicks in the face.
[C#]There ain't no peace in this world, that's a fact, take a good look around.[D]
[Eb]So I'm gonna stand here and fight, ain't nobody putting me down.
They call me the [E]black eyed, the [F#]black eyed, black eyed [Ab]bruiser.
[Ab]All [C#]I [Ab]want is a little bit of un[C#]der[Ab]standing.
I [C#]don't [Ab]wanna be the man I am.[C#][Ab]
[Ab]All[C#] I [Ab]need is a little bit of lo[C#]vin' [Ab]care now.
[C#]Don't [Ab]wanna be a hated man.[C#][Ab]
[E]Don't wanna be, [F#]don't wanna be a black eyed [Ab]bruiser.
[E]I don't wanna be, [F#]I don't wanna be, a black eyed [Ab]bruiser.
They call me a [E]black eyed, [F#]black eyed, they call me the black eyed [Ab]bruiser.
etc.
I have used barre chords for this basic rythym version of this classic
Oz Rock song. The Ab is quickly released and/or slid down to the F#
for the majority of the verses.
