N.C.      C        Am
I got the hungries for your love

        D7              G7      C
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
[Verse 1]
        C                         Am
Well, I ain't got nothing but the shirt on my back

       F   G7         C
And an old two-button suit

         C                     F
I walked out on my job about a week ago

            G7                      C
And now I'm sleeping in a telephone booth

        C                    Am
But I'm gonna be the richest guy around

    F       G7         C
The day you say you're mine

          C        Am
I got the hungries for your love

        D7              G7      C
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
[Verse 2]
       C                               Am
When I first saw you, babe, you nearly made me wreck

   F      G7    C
My old '49 Cadillac

  C                            F
I knew at a glance that it was you for me

      G7                       C
And I had to have your love by heck

          C                     Am
I'm gonna follow you, baby, wherever you go

      F          G7          C
I got nothing to lose but my time

          C        Am
I got the hungries for your love

        D7              G7      C
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
[Guitar Solo] C Am F G7 C C Am D7 G7 C [Verse 3]
          C                   Am
Well, you made me the top dog on your hill

    F    G7   C
And I was overjoyed

       C                         F
But it didn't take long 'til the thrill was gone

             G7               C
I joined the ranks of the unemployed

         C                       Am
Now, I'm right back where that I started from

         F           G7        C
But that ain't gonna change my mind

          C        Am
I got the hungries for your love

        D7              G7      C
And I'm waiting in your welfare line

         D7              G7      C
Yes, I'm waiting in your welfare line
