I’m up every morning before the sunshine  
               G 
comes rolling in 
  
When that rooster starts crowing it just 
       C                        D 
reminds me that I need to feed him 
C/G 
     Everyday is the same  
G 
     but every day is different  
              C                     D 
cause every day I grow deeper in debt

And You cant cash my checks 
                       G 
And you cant feel this hunger  
                F            C 
you can push me into the water 
                     D 
but you cant hold me under   
                 C/G 
you can bring me down  
                     Em     C 
but you cant make me beg 
                G           D 
you can take my word 
                         G 
but you cant cash my checks

It's so hard to stay honest in a world thats  
            G 
headed to hell  
                                       C 
you cant make a good living these days cause  
                    D 
the truth just dont sell 
          C/G                   G 
so if you go out my back door  
  
just over the hill 
 C

            D 
that's been paying my bills
