G6                           
See that black boy over there, 
        Fmaj7
runnin' scared
                  G6      Fmaj7
his ol' man is in a bottle.
G6                      Fmaj7
He done quit his 9 to 5 to drink 
full time

now he's livin' in the bottle.
G6

his ol' man got a problem       and 
its a bad one
G6                               
Pawned off damn near everything,
