Artist/Band: Scott Ray Tabs
Song: Makin' My Way Tab
INTRO: Am Em-G Am Em-G Am Em-G
Am Em-G
I never counted on Neputism it wasn't all laid out for me
Am Em-G
I started off from a crawl and worked my way up to my knees
Am Em-G
I know one way of doin' things, I come from that side of life
Am
Where folks don't bathe in the mornin' they take their baths at night
G D Am Em-G
At the end of a long hard day, I'm makin' my way
Am Em-D
I like a row of similar souls on any given Friday night
Am Em-G
And I know there ain't much redemption in drinkin' beer and tellin' lies
Am Em-G
But it's a damned good way for a good ol' boy to know that he ain't alone
Am
And forget the pile of B.S. he put up with all week long
G D Am
And when the boys ask me how I am I say, I'm makin' my way
CHORUS:
G
Yeah and I ain't never caught the view from the window of a king
Am
But the common man don't tend to miss what he ain't never seen
G D G-Em
Yeah I ain't got it bad as some, but then I ain't quite got it made
Am Em-G
But I'm makin' my way
Am
Yeah I'm makin' my way
SOLO (CHORUS chords)
Am Em-G
You know there's a lot of able-bodied takers out there in that welfare line
Am
But you can bet Uncle Sam ain't wipin' this boy's behind
G D Am
Ain't no government cheese on my plate, I'm a-makin' my way
CHORUS
Em] G Am
I know how my bed is made
