Victim Of Circumstance chords by Joan Jett

Key: E

Intro:

E
B A



Verse:

    E                            B
The police were waitin' when the sun came up
    A
You better move your ass
         B
Or we'll really get rough
  E
I never wanted trouble
      B
But I sure got enough
    A
I'm bad at bein' subtle
      B
But I ain't that tough, no

Chorus:

E                 G
(Just a victim of circumstance)
           A
Didn't you know
                  C
(Just a victim of circumstance)
           E
Doesn't it show
                      G
(I'm just a victim of circumstance)
           A
Wherever I go
                        B
(I'm just a victim of a bad reputation)

I go no chance of shakin'


Verse 2:

E                             B
Really gets you down when you don't belong
    A                        B
An' everyone around says you growed up wrong
    E                              B
But why do they resent it
I ain't doin' anything
     A                           B
They say that I'm demented an' I never could sing
     E                 B
Then everywhere I went caused them such alarm
    A                           B
You know I never meant to cause anybody harm, no

Didn't you know
                  C
(Just a victim of circumstance)
           E
Doesn't it show
                      G
(I'm just a victim of circumstance)
           A
Wherever I go
                        B
(I'm just a victim of a bad reputation)

I go no chance of shakin'
