And the story goes like this:
C minorCm              G+G
Everything went numb for the money and the guns
  AbAb             Eb MajorEb
And everytime he'd think it out: "There's nothing to worry about"
F minorFm       C minorCm
Get in the van, don't deviate from the plan
  AbAb                 Bb majorBb
If everything goes smooth then you'll walk away a rich man"
C minorCm         G+G
So it begins, everybody walks in
   AbAb           Eb MajorEb           F minorFm
Could this be the way or the day that the underdog wins?
           C minorCm
I think not, and I'll bet on the feds
 AbAb              Bb majorBb
Because the black hat men never wins in the end, so...

C minorCm              AbAb          Eb MajorEb
Everything went numb when he stumbled upon what he thought
            Bb majorBb
Was going to be another means to the end
C minorCm    G+G
Silence, sirens
AbAb            Bb majorBb
It all went down like his nightmare the night before

Don't fear for our hero ain't near the end, my friend
   Eb MajorEb              F minorFm
Let's take it back to how it all began:
      C minorCm
With a proposition
AbAb            Bb majorBb
Proposition starts with a capital "P"
    C minorCm            G+G
"Or at least for me" is what he said to himself
    AbAb             Eb MajorEb
But himself ain't a lot when he's got nothing left
  F minorFm          C minorCm
Of what was once a man, loved and loving
  AbAb            Bb majorBb
He took that trip that turns something to nothing

Bridge:
C minorCm    Bb majorBb
Right and wrong
    AbAb                 Eb MajorEb           F minorFm
There's not a lot a difference when you're singing that poor man's song
     C minorCm   AbAb     G+G     C minorCm
And that song it goes just a little like this:
C minorCm    Bb majorBb
Na na na na na na
AbAb     G+G
  Na na na na na na na
