Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]If I could only find a [A]job
to know that I'd [D]bring back
baby's [G]smile again
And [D]make her feel quite proud
to be my [A]wife
But for [D]every job there's [A]ten good men,
[D]they only want to [G]work again
And [D]they're sick and tired
of just [A]barely getting [D]by
Well I've [A]got to find a job today,
cause [G]I got all those b[D]ills to pay
Some[Bm]times a drink to keep
my headaches [A]in
You know,
[D]standing in some wel[A]fare line
[D]Ain't ever been no [G]way of mine
[D]I've got my pride,
but [A]I've got to feed the [D]kids[A]
[D][G][D][A][D]
[A][D][G][D][A][D]
But sometimes I think those [A]better days
[D]ain't ever gonna [G]look my way
Seems [D]the more I wait,
the more I waste my [A]time
All the [D]weeks turn into [A]years so fast
[D]Found out living [G]in my past
is [D]the only way to [A]keep my hopes [D]alive.
Well I've [A]got to find a job somehow,
[G]I know what it f[D]eels like now
to [Bm]face the day that put me on the [A]skin.
Well I'll [D]draw my unemployment [A]check,
[D]that keeps the landlord off[G] my back.
[D]I've got my pride,
but [A]I've got to feed the kid[D]s.
You know,
standing in some wel[A]fare line
[D]ain't never been no [G]way of mine
[D]I've got my pride,
but [A]I've got to feed the kids
[D]
