[G][D][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
My [G]daddy was a bank robber
But he [G]never hurt no[Am]bod [G]y
[G]He just loved to live that [D]way
And he [C]loved to [D]steal [G]your money
[G]Some is rich, and some is poor
And [G]that's the way the [Am]world [G]is
But I [G]don't believe in laying [D]back
[C]Sayin' how [D]bad [G]your luck is

[Verse 2]
[G]So we came to jazz it up
[G]Never learned to [Am]shove[G]l
[G]Break your back to earn our [D]pay
[C]Don't for[D]get [G]to grovel
[G]Daddy was a bank robber
But he [G]never hurt no[Am]bod [G]y
[G]He just loved to live that [D]way
And he [C]loved to [D]take [G]your money

[Verse 3]
The [G]old man spoke up in a bar
[G]Said "I never been in [Am]pris[G]on
[G]A lifetime serving one mac[D]hine
Is [C]ten times [D]worse [G]than prison"
I[G]magine if all the boys in jail
Could [G]get out now to[Am]get [G]her
[G]What do you think they'd want to say to [D]us?
[C]While we was [D]being [G]clever
[G]Someday you'll meet your rocking chair
[G]'Cause that's where we're [Am]spin[G]ning
[G]There's no point to want to comb your [D]hair
[C]When it's [D]grey [G]and thinning

We [G]never learned to [Am]shov[G]el
[G]Break your back to earn your [D]pay
And [C]don't for[D]get [G]to grovel
