Capo: 1
Note- This might not be 100% accurate, but if you sing slightly higher this sounds great on acoustic. Capo- 1 Intro: Em-Em-G-D x2
EmTwo packs of cigarettes a day The Gstrongest whiskey KenDtucky can make Em That's a recipe to put a Gvagabond On his Dhands and knees Em
I watched it all up close,
I knew him more than Gmost I saw a side of Dhim he never showed Em Full of sympathy for a Gworld that Wouldn't Dlet him be
Am That's the man he was, C Have you hBeard enough'
EmWhat a sGhame, what a sDhame, To judge a life that you can't chaEmnge The choir sGings, the church bells rDing So, won't you give this man his wEmings' What a shGame to have to bDeg you to See we're not all the Csame B What a Emshame
Em-G-D Em-Em-G-D
There's a Emhard life for every silver spoon There's aG touch of grey for everyD shade of blue EmThat's the way that I see life If there was Gnothing wrong, Then there'd be Dnothing right EmAnd for this working man they say could Barely Gstand There's gotta be a beDtter place to Emland Some kind of remedy for a Gworld that Wouldn't Dlet him be
Am That's the man he was, C Have you hBeard enough'
EmWhat a sGhame, what a sDhame, To judge a life that you can't chaEmnge The choir sGings, the church bells rDing So, won't you give this man his wEmings' What a shGame to have to bDeg you to See we're not all the Csame B
