Cmadd9            Gm
That's how they do it 'round here, man
              Cmadd9
They say our foot's in the door
              Gm
And we tryna stick to the road
                 Cmadd9
'Fore they put a lock on the door
               Gm
That's how they do it around here, man
               Cmadd9
Leave us the lock with no key
              Gm
Make us believe there's a dream
N.C.
Lettin' us think it's for free
