F           C
ain't got a friend

You're a long, lonesome way from your home
      C
And I know how it feels when

And you don't see a face that you know
      F                    C
And I know how it feels to work

'til you drop
         G      F              C
And it's 10,000 bills that you owe

F           C
ain't got a cent

No, you don't got a nickel to your name
      C
And I know how it feels when
     F               C
they take you to the judge
                    G           C
You're down begging God on your knees




🎸 Verse :

you lay down at night

And there's no lips to call your own

You get up and walk 'til
    C
the morning gets light
    G          F         C
Out where that wild wind blows

                             G
And blisters on both of your feet
    C
You can't pay the rent
F             C
so the men take your things
                    G          C
And throw you right out on the street

I know how it feels to march and sing
         G              F        C
When you know that your fight is right
