[Intro] F - C - F - C - F - C - G - C
C
[Verse1]Got a lot of memories tied up in this place
F C
So much time spent in so little space
C
What looked like the world through the eyes of a child
G
Kind of closes in on you after awhile
Am C
It's a place to grow up and a place to grow old
F C
You keep your mouth shut and you do what you're told
C
I told mama the day that I ran
G C
This ain't no place for an angry young man
F C
Mama if you could see me right now
F C
You'd be so sure you failed me somehow
Am F
Mama you never could understand
G C
There ain't no peace for an angry young man
F - C - G - C
C
A cheap hotel a long way from my home
F C
So many people make you feel so alone
C
Dreams die easy out here in these streets
G
And hearts grow cold in the city heat
Am C
I ain't never been the patient kind
F C
I got to live like I please or die tryin'
C
At a filling station with a gun in my hand
G C
The only way for an angry young man
F C
Mama if you could see me right now
F C
You'd be so sure you failed me somehow
Am F
Mama you never could understand
G C
There ain't no peace for an angry young man
F - C - G - C
C
Got a lot of memories tied up in this place
F C
Tonight they're starin' me right in the face
C
A lonely grave on the outskirts of town
G
It's three in the morning, ain't no one around
Am C
Just like a ghost I come out of the night
F C
But I'll be gone before the morning light
C
Mama I hope that you understand
G C
This ain't no place for an angry young man
F C
Mama if you could see me right now
F C
You'd be so sure you failed me somehow
Am F
Mama you never could understand
G C
There ain't no peace for an angry young man
F C
Mama if you could see me right now
F C
You'd be so sure you failed me somehow
Am F
Mama you never could understand
G C
There ain't no peace for an angry young man
