We've all seen a man at the liquor store beggin' for your change
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
The hair on his face is dirty, dread-locked and full of mange
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
He asks a man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
"Get a job you fucking slob" is all he replies
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues

Verse 2
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in love
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
He said “Don't worry about a thing baby doll, I'm the man you've been dreaming of”
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
But three months later he say he won't date her or return her calls
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm

Dm Fmaj7 C
I've seen a rich man beg, I've seen a good man sin, I've seen a tough man cry
Dm Fmaj7 C
I've seen a loser win and a sad man grin; I heard an honest man lie
Dm Fmaj7 C
I've seen the good side of bad and the downside of up and everything between
Dm Fmaj7 C
I licked the silver spoon; drank from the golden cup and smoked the finest green
Dm Fmaj7 C
I stroked the phattest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their heart
Dm Fmaj7 C*
You know where it ends; it usually depends on where you start

Verse 3
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
I knew this kid named Max who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
He liked to hang out late; he liked to get shitfaced and keep the pace with thugs
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
Until late one night there was a big old fight and Max lost his head
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
He pulled out his Colt .45, talked some shit and wound up dead
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
You know it comes that way at least thats what they say when you play the game
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose

Papa Was a Rolling Stone
[Verse 1]
Em Am
It was the third of September; that day I'll always re-member,
Em
'Cos that was the day, that my daddy died.
Em
I never got a chance to see him;
Am
Never heard nothin' but bad things about him.
Em
Mama, I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth.
[Chorus 1]
(Spoken):
Mama just hung her head and said; "son…
Em Am
Papa was a rollin' stone; wherever he laid his hat, was his home.
Em Am Em
And when his died, all he left us was a-lone".
[Verse 2]
Em
Hey, Mama, I heard Papa call himself a jack of all trades;
Am
Tell me, is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Em
Folks say Papa would beg borrow or steal to pay his bills.
Hey, Mama, folks say Papa was never much on thinkin';
Am
Spend most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'!
Em
Mama, I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth.
[Chorus 2]
(Spoken)
Mama just hung her head and said; "son…
Em Am
Papa was a rollin' stone; wherever he laid his hat, was his home.
Em Am Em
And when his died, all he left us was a-lone".

I Heard it Through the Grapevine
[Intro]
Gm C/D, Gm C/G Gm (x5)
[Verse 1]
Gm C/G Gm
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
D C7
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
Gm C/G Gm
With some other guy you knew be-fore,
D C7
Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.
[Bridge 1]
Em C7
It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
Gm C7
When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that;
[Chorus 1]
Gm C7 Gm
I heard it through the grape-vine;
C
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Gm C7 Gm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
C7 (Gm)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]
Gm
(I heard it through the grapevine,
C/G Gm C/G Gm, C/G
Not much longer would you be my baby).
[Verse 2]
Gm C/G Gm
I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
D C7
But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
Gm C/G Gm
Losing you, would end my life, you see,
D C7
'Cos you mean that much to me.
[Bridge 2]
Em C7
You could have told me your-self,
Gm C7
That you loved someone else.
[Chorus 2]
Gm C7 Gm
Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
C
Not much longer would you be mine.
Gm C7 Gm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
C7 (Gm)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]

Not much longer would you be my baby).
[Interlude]
Gm C/D, Gm C/G Gm (x5)
[Verse 3]
Gm
People say; believe half of what you see,
D C7
Son, and none of what you hear.
Gm
But I can't help, but be confused,
D C7
If it's true, please tell me, dear.
[Bridge 3]
Em C7
Do you plan to let me go,
Gm C7
For the other guy you loved be-fore?
[Chorus 3]
Gm C7 Gm
I heard it through the grape-vine;
C
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Gm C7 Gm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
C7 Gm
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]

Not much longer would you be my baby).
