Stuck In The Middle chords by Steelers Wheel

Chords with lyrics

The strumming is quite strange with 4 down beats in a bar but the 2nd and 4th down beat is dampened to get
that tinny drum sound to get the beat of the song. Or you can just miss out the last down strokes to get a
down up down up   up   up rhythm. Strumming is normal on the G7G7 bridge section

Well you started out with nothing,
      G7G7                 D MajorD  D MajorD
And you're proud that you're a self made man,
     G7G7
And your friends, they all come crawlin,

Slap you on the back and say,
D MajorD    A minorAm    D MajorD  D MajorD  D MajorD   D MajorD
Please, please

Trying to make some sense of it all,
     D MajorD               D MajorD
But I can see that it makes no sense at all,
   G7G7             G7G7
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor,
     D MajorD               D MajorD
'Cause I don't think that I can take anymore
