Intro
Em / Em7 / Em / Emadd9
Em Jimmy got nothing made himself a name Em7 With a gun that he polished for a rainy day Em A smile and a quote from a vigilante movie Emadd9 Am7 Our boy Jimmy just blew them all away
He said it made him crazy
Em Twenty five years living hand to mouth Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth Em Sweet little baby on a big white doorstep Em7 She needs her mother but her mother is dead Em Just another hooker that the lucky can forget Emadd9 Just another hooker Am7 It happens everyday
She loved her little baby
But she couldn't bear to see her living
Em Emadd9 Em Emadd9 Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth Cmaj7 Bm I believe in the gods of America Cmaj7 Bm I believe in the land of the free Am7 But no one told me (No one told me) Em That the gods believe in nothing D So with empty hands I pray Bm And from day to hopeless day Em They still don't see me (See me)
Everybody talks about the new generation
Jump on the wagon or they'll leave you behind
But no one gave a thought to the rest of the nation
Like to help you buddy, but I haven't got the time
Somebody shouted save me
And everybody started living hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
There's a big white lady
On a big white doorstep
She asked her daddy and her daddy said 'yes'
Has to give a little for the dollars that we get
Has to give a little
They say it's for the best
Somebody shouted
Maybe
But they kept on living from hand to mouth
Hand to mouth, hand to mouth, hand to mouth
So she ran to the arms of America
And she kissed the powers that be
And someone told me
(Someone told me)
That the gods believe in nothing
So with empty hands I pray
And I tell myself
One day
They just might see me
