----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------


Tuning: Standard

Intro:
[D] [G]

Now you're [G]lookin at a man thats getting kinda mad
I [G]had lots of luck but it's all been bad
No [D7]matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world [G]alive.

My [G]fishin poles broke the creek is full of sand
My [G]woman run away with another man
No [D7]matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world [G]alive.

A [C]distant uncle passed away and [G]left me quite a batch
And [C]I was living high until that fatal day
A lawyer [D7]proved I wasn't born
I was only [G]hatched

[G]Everythings agin me and its got me down
[G]If I jumped in the river I would probably drown
No [D7]matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world [G]alive.


Break:
[G]
[G] [D7] [G]
[G]
[G] [D7] [G]

These s[C]habby shoes I'm wearin all the time
[G]Are full of holes and nails
And [C]brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a [D7]nickel I could tell you if it was heads or [G]tails.

[G]I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
[G]Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow
No [D7]matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world [G]alive.
