Bitter Old Man Ramshackle Glory
The other tab not completely correct, this one is =) enjoy
Intro D Bm A G x2
[D]i was born a bitter old man who got his hea[Bm]rt broken in catalonia, 19[A]36.[G]
i haven?t felt right s[D]ince, so i gave up on life before i arr[Bm]ived.
i knew this place wasn?t safe for anyone but [A]fascists and republicans and [G]their apologis[D]ts.
[A]but i swear to [G]god, i?m gonna [D]die full of na[Em]ive optimism; [A]a teenager?s heartbreaking conviction
[G]that things can be different. oh yeah, things are gonna be real [A]different when we?re finished
around [D]here.
i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young. [A]
[D]i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young. [A]
[D]i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young;
now i feel [A]younger every day[G], and i just hope i die younger than i am.
Intro again (D Bm A G x2)
[D]i can hear you from a dozen states away
[Bm]shivering through a dope sick morning of[A] no money left and n[G]othing else to st[D]eal.
[D]lord only knows that i?ve had my sh[Bm]are, because there were years when i was ready to di[A]e,
but it?s only been[G] recently that i?ve been [D]willing to live. [G]
[A]and i swear to g[G]od, i didn?t p[D]lan for things to e[Em]nd up this way.[A]
i had a teenager?s convictio[G]n that i would be different.
oh yeah, [A]i was gonna be real different than the person [D]i became.
i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young. [A]
[D]i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young. [A]
[D]i always [Em]wanted to die [G]young;
now i feel [A]younger every [G]day, and i just hope i die younger than i am.
Bridge D Gm x4
[D]but now living[Bm]?s a struggle, [G]except when it isn?t. (yeah),
[D]i woke up this[Bm] morning and i wasn?t in p[G]rison,
[D]but i can?t promise [Bm]that i?m far from i[G]t.
i?d still kill a man for cigarette,
[D]but with friends like[Bm] you, who needs h[G]omicide?
[D]so this song goes out to a[Bm]ll our homies locked d[G]own.
[D]come on [Bm]back now, we need you a[G]round.
[D]that judge, he [Bm]doesn?t know what he?s d[G]one.
[D]no, judges [Bm]never know the things they d[G]o. how could they?
D Bm A G x4 end on D
