Four and twenty years ago I come into this life
Son of a woman and a man who lived in strife
F G D
He was tired of bein' poor
F G D
And he wasn't into sellin' door to door
F G D
And he worked like the devil to be more
D
A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul
Night after sleepless night I walk the floor and I want to know
F G D
why am I so alone
F G D
Where is my woman can I bring her home
F G
Have I driven her away
D
Is she gone
SOLO
D
Morning comes to sunrise and I'm driven to my bed
D
I see it is empty and there's devils in my head.
F G D
I embrace the many colored beast
F G D
I grow weary of the torment can there be no peace
F G D
And I find myself just wishing that my life would simply cease
D
Four and twenty years ago I come into this life
A son of a woman and a man who lived in strife
F G D
He was tired of bein' poor
F G D
And he wasn't into sellin' door to door
F G D
And he worked like the devil to be more
