Dear Landlord Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Dea[Am]r Lan[G]dl[C]ord
Please don't put a price on my [E]soul.
[Am]My burden is heavy, dear[F],
And my dreams are beyond [Dm]my control,

[Verse 2]
Oh yes, they are.
[F]But when that steam-boat
whistle whistle blows,
[Bb]Oh, honey I'm gonna give
you everything I ever had to give, yeah,
[C]And I do hop[Dm]e that you
can re[C]ceive it well,
[Bb]I know that it m[Am]ust be dependin' on
[Gm]the way you feel that you [Dm]live.
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
Whoa, Landlord,
Please heed these words
that I [Am]try t[E]o speak.
[Am]I know you must have suffered much,
[F]But honey you ain't alone,
you ain't so [Dm]unique.
No no no, no, [F]no.

[Verse 4]
All of us [F]at times, I said,
we might have worked too [Bb]hard
Or too heavy,
too fast and way too rushed, [C]yeah!
But every[Dm]one can fill
[C]their life with anything
[Bb]You can look[Am] around, but baby you [Gm]just cannot touc[Dm]h.

[Verse 5]
Whoa, my Dear [C]Landlord,
Please don't you dismiss [E]my case.
[Am]I'm not about to argue with you,
[F]And honey I'll tell ya, I'm ain't
gonna move to no other [Dm]place.
'Cause I just ain't gonna do it,
no, [F]no, no.

[Verse 6]
Each of us must [F]have
their own special [Bb]gift,
Oh honey, don't you know
that it's got to be true
[C]And if you don't underest[Dm]imate me,
[C]I'll tell you one thi[Bb]ng,
I said [Am]that I won't [Gm]underestimate [Dm]you, [G]no!
