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
And she swear “God damn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls"

Bridge
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
Chorus
Dm Fmaj7 C Dm
Then you really might know what it's like (What it's like)

Then you really might know what it's like (What it's like)

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

[Verse 1]
Em A/E Em
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
B A7
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
Em A/E Em
With some other guy you knew be-fore,
B A7
Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.
[Bridge 1]
C#m A7
It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
Em A7
When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that;
[Chorus 1]
Em A7 Em
I heard it through the grape-vine;
A
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Em A7 Em
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A7 (Em)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]
Em
(I heard it through the grapevine,
A/E Em A/E Em, A/E
Not much longer would you be my baby).
[Verse 2]
Em A/E Em
I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
B A7
But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
Em A/E Em
Losing you, would end my life, you see,
B A7
'Cos you mean that much to me.
[Bridge 2]
C#m A7
You could have told me your-self,
Em A7
That you loved someone else.
[Chorus 2]
Em A7 Em
Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A
Not much longer would you be mine.
Em A7 Em
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A7 (Em)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]

[Verse 3]
Em
People say; believe half of what you see,
B A7
Son, and none of what you hear.
Em
But I can't help, but be confused,
B A7
If it's true, please tell me, dear.
[Bridge 3]
C#m A7
Do you plan to let me go,
Em A7
For the other guy you loved be-fore?
[Chorus 3]
Em A7 Em
I heard it through the grape-vine;
A
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Em A7 Em
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A7 Em
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
[Break]

Not much longer would you be my baby).
