Put a Flower In Your Pocket

[Intro] A  F#m  A  F#m  A  F#m

[First Part]

A
The city street is hot
F#m
The heat is escalating
A
Every corner in the town
  F#m
There's a paycheck waiting

[Chorus]

Bm
Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it
A
And you run

You Run
Bm
They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you

A
Just for fun

For fun
Bm
If they're gunning for you boy
               F#m  C#m  F#m
You've already won

[Second Part]

A
I had a dream today
Continues after the ad
F#m
About a hustle lost
A
He paid his dues
F#m
Then he paid the cost
A
Wish I knew back then
F#m
All I know right now
A
Things would be much different
F#m
The time has allowed

[Chorus]

Bm
Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it
A
And you run

You Run
Bm
They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you

A
Just for fun

For fun
Bm
If they're gunning for you boy
               F#m  C#m  F#m
You've already won

[Third Part]

F#m
With tired eyes
E
And bills to pay
Bm
You gotta make it through
C#
Another day
F#m
The streets can see
E
Into your soul
Bm
It ain't where ya been
C#
But where you're gonna go

[Chorus]

Bm
Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it
A
And you run

You Run
Bm
They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you
A
Just for fun

For fun
Bm
If they're gunning for you boy
               F#m   C#m   F#m
You've already won
