As recorded by the Dropkick Murphys (From the 2023 Album OKEMAH RISING) [Intro] C F C G C F C G C [Verse 1]
C                            F           C
I know how it feels when you ain't got a friend

                                      G
You're a long, lonesome way from your home

      C                          F            C
And I know how it feels when you slave like a dog

                    G              C
And you ain't got a thing that you own
[Verse 2]
  F                          C
I know how it feels when you walk on the street

        G                         C
And you don't see a face that you know

      F                    C
And I know how it feels to work 'til you drop

         G      F              C
And it's 10,000 bills that you owe
[Chorus]
C
I know how it feels

              G   C
I know how it feels

              F
I know how it feels

  G         F      C
I know just how it feels
[Interlude] C F C G C [Verse 3]
C                            F           C
I know how it feels when you ain't got a cent

                                   G
No, you don't got a nickel to your name

      C                           F               C
And I know how it feels when they take you to the judge

                    G           C
You're down begging God on your knees
[Verse 4]
  F                          C
I know how it feels when you lay down at night

            G                    C
And there's no lips to call your own

    F                        C
You get up and walk 'til the morning gets light

    G          F         C
Out where that wild wind blows
[Chorus]
C                  G C
I know how it feels

              G   C
I know how it feels

              F
I know how it feels

  G         F      C
I know just how it feels
[Interlude] C F C G C [Verse 5]
C                                F         C
I know how it feels when you got calloused hands

                             G
And blisters on both of your feet

    C                          F             C
You can't pay the rent, so the men take your things

                    G          C
And throw you right out on the street
[Verse 6]
  F                    C
I know how it feels to join a union

      G                 C
Speak up like a man and fight

  F                    C
I know how it feels to march and sing

         G              F        C
When you know that your fight is right
[Outro-Chorus]
C
I know how it feels

              G   C
I know how it feels

              F
I know how it feels

  G         F      C
I know just how it feels

C
I know how it feels

C
(I know how it feels)

              G   C
I know how it feels

C
(I know how it feels)

              F
I know how it feels

  G          F              C
I know just exactly how you feel
