[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
E
Well I've had my highs and I've had my lows
A
I used to spend all of my money on whiskey, women, and smokes
E B
Now I can barely scr*pe up enough just to fill my car with gas
E
I'm burning the candle at both ends just to meet in the middle
A
I feel like a guitar that shoulda been a fiddle
E B E
Just plucking along with too many strings attached
[Chorus]
A
Well the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer
E
And there ain't no American dream no more
B
Tryin to make a living just doing the best I can
A
I'm running like the devil to make ends meet
E
I got blood on my hands.. blisters on my feet
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man
E A E B E
[Verse 2]
E
I ain't had a day off in over 3 weeks
A
This part time position is full time - killing me
E B
If I had some time I'd probably spend it out on the lake
E
Or take my litte lady for dinner and dancing
A
A little backroad - tailgate down romancing
E B7 E
But I can't find a babysitter.. That'll give a damn man a break
[Chorus]
A
Well the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer
E
And there ain't no American dream no more
B
Tryin to make a living just doing the best I can
A
I'm running like the devil to make ends meet
E
I got blood on my hands.. blisters on my feet
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man
[Solo]
A E B
A E B7 E
[Chorus]
A
Well the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer
E
And there ain't no American dream no more
B
Tryin to make a living just doing the best I can
A
I'm running like the devil to make ends meet
E
I got blood on my hands.. blisters on my feet
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man - Yes I am
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man - Y'all understand
B7 E
Dying for a dollar just to split it with the man
