[Intro] B B E G#m B B E B [Chorus]
         B                 G#m
I'm gonna use what I got to get what I need

         B                           G#m
I'm gonna use what I use all I got to get what I need, yeah
[Verse 1]
B                               G#m
Look, I was born in a little old shack

           B                         F#
Didn't have enough to eat, not enough clothes on my back

E                             F#
Lord knows I kept the faith, a heart full of woe

E                                  F#
Now they're trying to get me at the end of my road
[Chorus]
         B                 G#m
I'm gonna use what I got to get what I need

         B                           G#m
I'm gonna use what I use all I got to get what I need, yeah
[Verse 2]
B                       G#m
The rich is content while the poor do without

B                        F#
If you ask for some help, they don't know what you're talking about

E                  F#       
All say they answer as if they're on the wind

E                    F#
It changes sometimes, that's why I'm afraid
[Chorus]
           B                 G#m
I've got to use what I got to get what I need

         B                           G#m
I'm gonna use what I use all I got to get what I need, yeah
[Instrumental] B E B E B B E G#m B B E B [Verse 3]
   B               G#m
The road of life is mighty steep

           B                           F#              
When you're broke, busted and disgusted for you ain't got nowhere to sleep

E                           F#
I'm gonna find me a woman to stand by my side

E                                    F#
'Cause I'm so tired of running, can't find no place to hide
[Chorus]
B                 G#m
Use what I got to get what I need

         B                           G#m
I'm gonna use what I use all I got to get what I need, yeah

B                G#m
Use what I got to get what I need

         B           G#m
Said I've got to...
