This is a great song by Everlast, fun and easy to play along to. I was surprised
that the chords weren't already listed on the site, so I decided to go ahead
and do it.
I figured this out by ear using the record version. Refer to this video
( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSnZ6AMrIZU ) if you need help with the
strumming pattern or simply listen to the record version.
Some chords will seem to be listed twice, this is because you will go
through the strum pattern once every time a chord is listed.
The chord changes are listed where I think they should go/where you will
hit the bass notes of the chord for the first down stroke, but you should
be able to figure it out by ear easily enough.

[Intro]
C G E Am F C G G [x2]
[Verse]
With a Csoft underbelly,
and a Ghardened heart,
they say you Egotta be tough if youAm ain't that smart,
I'm sitFtin here alone, Cwaitin for my phone to rinGg. G
[Verse]
C Run outta time,
G run outta hope,
the Eboys on the corner neverAm run outta dope,
I keFep myself high, so IC can keep doin' my thingG. G
[Verse]
They say, C
stupid is as Gstupid does,
and eveErything's the same as itAm ever was,
I Fdrink myself blind tryin' to Cfind a new song to singG. G
[Verse]
C Time is money,
G Money talks,
BartEender pour me one more Amwhiskey on the rocks,
while I Ftry to understand, why Cevery man wants to be kinGg. G
[Chorus]
Am Heavy Amis the head that Gwears the crown. G
Am EverybodyAm, kicks you Gwhen you're down. G
Am Laugh for Amnow, later Gyou can frown. G
Am Heavy Amis the head that Fwears the crown. G
[Verse]
With a Csweet disposition,
and an Giron will,
a Ecouple nice cars, and a Amhouse on a hill,
my Fbank account's full but my Csoul's still empty and coldG. G
[Verse]
All the Cmoney and the clothes,
and the Gsold out shows,
don't Emean a damn thing when Amnobody knows you,
and your Fhome is just a house when you're Csittin' there alone and you're oldG. G
[Verse]
I heard, Clove is a game,
I heard lGove is a rock,
I heard Elove is a house on a Amdead end block,
but the Fending keeps changin' every Ctime, the story gets toldG. G
[Verse]
CSome pray for money,
Gsome pray for rain,
and Esome are just are just prayin' for Amrelief from the pain,
and Fsome of us'll buy just 'bout Canything we can be soldG. G
[Chorus]
Am Heavy Amis the head that Gwears the crown. G
Am EverybodyAm, kicks you Gwhen you're down. G
Am Laugh for Amnow, later Gyou can frown. G
Am Heavy Amis the head that Fwears the crown. G
[Bridge]
F F C G [x2]
[Verse]
I'm a Cmean old dog,
got a Gbig old gun,
I'm a Eproud new papa, I'm an Amonly son,
I'm a Fbeggar I'm a thief I'm a Cliar and a cheater tooG. G
[Verse]
I've been Caround the block,
I've been Garound the sun,
I've been Eup, I've been down, I've been Amover and done,
I've seen the Fbottom of the pile and the Cmountaintop, either will doG. G
[Chorus]
Am Heavy Amis the head that Gwears the crown. G
Am EverybodyAm, kicks you Gwhen you're down. G
Am Laugh for Amnow, later Gyou can frown. G
Am Heavy Amis the head that Fwears the crown. G
