Native Son Chords

(ver. 1)
Devil Makes Three
[Intro]
Em D Em D Em D C G D

[Verse 1]
G
Came through snow and driving rain
C
I came free and I came chained
D                          G      D
I watched ships pull up on shore
G
Worked and played, lived and died
C
Valleys deep in mountainside
D                              G     D
Don't say you don't need me anymore

[Chorus]
       C             G
'Cause I ain't going nowhere
           D               G
'Cause I'm right where I belong
C
I don't have to love it
    G               Em
And I don't have to leave it
         C              D                G
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son

[Verse 2]
G
Soldier, sailor, servant, slave
C
All the blood and sweat I gave
D                             G     D
I sang songs of home I left behind
   G
My head's been beaten, my soul's been spent
   C
My taxes taken, my back's been bent
    D                       G     D
And no one ever paid me any mind

[Chorus]
    C             G
And I ain't going nowhere
           D               G
'Cause I'm right where I belong
C
I don't have to love it
    G               Em
And I don't have to leave it
         C              D                G
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son
         C              D                Em
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son

[Guitar Solo]
Em D Em G D G Em G D C G D

[Verse 3]
     G
Been written out of every book
C
Jailed and slandered, robbed and took
D                          G    D
But I always found another way
G
Earn in a factory, fought in the streets
C
Hung from the bridges and died to speak
  D                                 G    D
I brought you everything you have today

[Chorus]
    C             G
And I ain't going nowhere
           D               G
'Cause I'm right where I belong
C
I don't have to love it
    G               Em
And I don't have to leave it
         C              D                G
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son
         C              D                Em
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son

[Bridge]
         G                 D                      Em
I'm your brother I've been beaten and mistreated
                             D
I'm your daughter, I've been lied to, I've been cheated
Em               G             D
I'm the one they call now when everything's in pieces
Em            G              D
The forgotten child that you thought you never needed

[Chorus]
C             G
I ain't going nowhere
       D                   G
'Cause I'm right where I belong
C
I don't have to love it
    G               Em
And I don't have to leave it

[Outro]
         C              D                G
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son
         C              D                Em
Ain't no stranger here, I am your native son
