Em
Jimmy got nothing made himself a 
name

rainy day

A smile and a quote from a vigilante
 movie

Our boy Jimmy just blew them all

Em
Just another hooker that the lucky 
can forget
Emadd9
Just another hooker
                Am7
It happens everyday

She loved her little baby

But she couldn't bear to see her 
living
Em             Emadd9         Em
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, 
             Emadd9
hand to mouth, hand to mouth


Cmaj7                    Bm
I believe in the gods of America
Cmaj7                        Bm
I believe in the land of the free
    Am7
But no one told me (No one told me)
         Em
That the gods believe in nothing
        D
So with empty hands I pray
         Bm
And from day to hopeless day
                 Em
They still don't see me (See me)


Everybody talks about the new 
generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave 
you behind
But no one gave a thought to the 
rest of the nation
Like to help you buddy, but I 
haven't got the time
Somebody shouted save me
And everybody started living hand to
 mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand 
to mouth

There's a big white lady
On a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy 
said 'yes'
Has to give a little for the dollars
 that we get
Has to give a little
They say it's for the best
Somebody shouted
Maybe
But they kept on living from hand to
 mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand 
to mouth

So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me
(Someone told me)
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself
One day
They just might see me
