Capo: 4
Official song is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW-FqgVTs2g The lyrics are not perfect (any corrections appreciated). Since I couldn't find any on the web or on the official Rusty Cage website I had to transcribe by ear. Standard tuning Capo 4 [Intro] Am F E Am
AmIt's kind of hard being a Fbum in this town E With the kids run while Amroaming all around We go by behind Fwithout a sound E And we all got stories tAmo tell Put a penny in a cup no Fmatter how small E I'm just a dollar short of catching the AmGreyhound home And God bless you sir won't Fsee me no more E 'Cause I'll be drunk behind the AmJiffy store
[Chorus]
AWell I'm gonna get straight if it's the Dmlast thing I can do G7 I get my life together if Csomeone would care E AAnd if I should die beDmfore my time is through E Tell all the people who IAm was
Am F E Am x2
AmOn a bench, a sour stench, Fclutching my booze E A pair of swiss cheese socks and Amtorn up shoes Whiskey breath, dumpster chef, Fnext to Taco Bell E I dropped my aspirations Amdown a wishing well Drunken stance, piss my pants, Fpiano-key teeth E All these things will blind you from aAm man beneath I'm not a fool, been to school, I've Fread Sun Tzu E You see us bums are people Amtoo
Am F E Am x2
AmSo I'm back in jail, I can't make Fbail I get my three square mealsE Oh how I've forgotten how a Ambed and pillow feels I'll take a breath, there's nothing Fleft I'll lift my head, the Bible Esaid To all those weary, I will Amgive you rest
[Chorus] [Bridge] Am Dm F E x 7 Am Dm E Am Am F E Am x2
AmOn the streets where I sleep, FBullet is my name E You see I've lost my wife and child Amin the whiskeyest of blame So I've been preaching gospels to the Fcrazies on the curb E Among these people I'll achieve Ammy fame 'Cause I can't get a job, 'cause of Fdirt on my face E I can't find a wood for our Amresting place I ain't a bad guy, FLord knows I try E And I'm 'prolly right here in the Amally where I'll die
[Chorus] x 2 [Outro] Am Dm F E x 2, second time hold E chord double count, then Am F E Am x2 gradually slower, second time end on Am
