x Em           Am                 Em
               Am
     Used to be younger,           
out on the    hard streets,
     Gettin' high on crystal,      
drinkin' scotch and smokin' weed,

G                 D                 
  C             x 
&(D-D/G-D-Dsus4-D-Dsus4)&
     Daddy's wish used to be nothin'
       less than my command,
%G             D                 
     Took to a switch to my back,
     C             
          nailed me
&(D-D/G-D-Dsus4-D-Dsus4)&%
 to a cross with both hands,

xEm                 Am         Em   
        Am                x
     Momma couldn't give me        
the thing a young boy needs,
     Instead of momma sufferin'    
she was smart enough to leave,

%G                & D &            
     Spent my life fightin'        
  C               
        tryin' to 
&(D-D/G-D-Dsus4-D-Dsus4)&
stay free,
     From trials and tribulation    
       and the state penitantory,

legend:
          x ==> pick and strum like 
intro
          & ==> this is just 
strummed while playing around with D
          % ==> strum

*note: after this, it's just a very 
simple rhythm, if you know the tune 
*

%Em        Am                    
I suppose really lookin' cool,   
   Em          Am
  just makin' both ends meet,
Until that day i saw you walkin',   
down   Blue Angel Street,

G                    D            
The sweetest lies of lily white,  
C                 &D&
 comin' from you lips,
You brush away       all my pain,  
with a lazy finger tip!

Em                     Am         
It moves my heart just watchin',  
 Em                  Am
 the way you walk so smooth,
you save me from an    evil fate,  
you steal 'way my   blues,

G           D              C    
Lyin' here, in your arms,  I 
       & D &
don't need no more proof,

G           D              C        
     D ^^^^^^^^^^(strum)
Lyin' here, safe and warm, it's just
 the naked truth!

G        D          C        D
This man loves you, this man loves 
you,
G        D          C        D 
This man loves you, this man 
         %
loves you.

x Em                     Am   Em

Em              Am                 
Em                Am           x
Goin' down that graveyard spiral,  
there was nothin' I could do,
Life treated me much harder,       
?than me'in' an   ole corkscrew?
