Black Sheep Of The Family Chords

(ver. 1)
Rainbow
[Intro]
D  C  Am  F  G

[Verse 1]
          G                          F
I've got nothing in my head, got a floor for a bed.
    C                           G
My future's at the bottom of a teacup
          G                       F
I've got half a pair of shoes and no time to lose.
     C                        G
I'm wondering when I'm gonna wise up

[Chorus 1]
         F                   C        G
    So, Fortune, shine your light on me (and my nose),
              F          C   G
    Cause I need some security.
               F          C            G
    You get a little bad luck and it grows and it grows.
              F      C              G
    I'm the black sheep of the family.

[Verse 2]
          G                       F
I've got half a pound of rice, a beard full of lice,
 C               G
Political retrogression.
            G                        F
I've got a pocket full of dust, and eating is a must
        C                      G
If you want to make a good impression.

[Chorus 2]
         F                  C        G
    So, Fortune shine your light on me (and my dog),
              F          C   G
    Cause we need some security.
          F                       C           G
    While other folks are living high on the hog.
              F      C              G
    I'm the black sheep of the family.

[Break]
Am               D          G  Em  D
  Don't talk to me about Society.
Am                        Am               D 
  You got to play by the rules or pay the penalty.
                   G                           Bm
  Because there's nothing to choose between a handful of blues.
   C             G D C Am D G
  Double indemnity.

[Verse 3]
      Am                         G
The whole world's wrong and my shadow's getting long.
    D                      Am
I realize this song don't mean much.
         Am                         G
I got an ache in my head. I want to go to bed.
   D                      Am
Tomorrow, I don't have to wake up.

[Chorus 3]
         G                 D        Am
    So, Wisdom shine your light on me (and my knees).
           G             D           Am
    It's true what they say about familiarity.
             G                 D          Am
    There's nothing good this way, it's true what they say!
              G      D            Am
    I'm the black sheep of the family.

         G                 D        Am
    So, Wisdom shine your light on me (and my knees).
           G             D           Am
    It's true what they say about familiarity.
             G                 D          Am
    There's nothing good this way, it's true what they say!
              G      D            Am
    I'm the black sheep of the family.
