Start Jamming...
[C]
[G] I would gladly loan to me [C] a dollar or two so I could [G] eat.
[F] Yeah, maybe get [G] just one good night [C] of sleep, but I'm not.
I'm [Dm] stranded [G] like a castaway in [C] this town.
[F] You seem [G] so unwilling to [C] help a fellow [F] when he's down.
If [C] I were you, [G] that's what [C] I'd do.
If I were you, [Dm] I wouldn't be out [G] on these streets the whole [C] night through.
Yeah, [G] I'd have a job and a pretty wife that I could [C] come home to, but I don't.
[E] And I have [G] twenty cents left [C] to my name.
[F] You're the [G] only one left [C] here that I [F] ever blame.
If I [G] were you, that's what I'd [C] do.
[Dm] Sir, it's not my way [G] to take from [C] you the things I haven't earned.
[F] I wish I could [G] go back and [F] heed the [B] lessons I [C] have learned, but I can't.
[G]
[F] So you're glad to put [G] your money in [C] this sack.
[F] Yes, sir, this thing [G] is loaded, and [C] I am the hand [F] of the bag.
[C] If I were [G] you, that's what [C] I'd do.
[F] If [C] I were you,
[G] that's what I'd do.
[C] [N]
