[G] [Bb] [G] She was not.
[Bb] [C]
[G] [Bb] [Am] [G] She was not.
[A] [G]
I was walking down the street [Gm] when out the corner of my [C] eye I saw a pretty [Bb] little thing approaching [F] me.
[G] She said, I never seen a [Bb] man who looked [C] so all alone, could you use [Gm] a little company?
[F]
[G] If you pay the right [Bb] price your evening [C] will be nice and you can go [G] and send me on [Fm] my way.
[G] I said, you're such a sweet young thing [Bb] and why you do [G] this to yourself?
[C] She looked [Ebm] at me [Bb] and this [G] is what she said, oh there [N] ain't no rest for the [G] wicked.
Money [Am] don't grow on trees.
I [G] got [Am] bills to pay, I got [G] miles to be.
There ain't [Bb] nothing in this world for free.
[C]
[G] I know I [C] can't slow down, I [G] can't hold back, though you know I [C] wish I could.
[G] I know there [Ab] ain't no [Bb] rest for the [C] wicked [G] until we close [Am] our eyes [Bb] for good.
[G]
Not even 15 minutes later [Bb] I'm still [D] walking down the street when [C] I saw the shadow [Bb] of a man creep out of [F] sight.
[G] And then he swept up from behind, [Bb] he put a gun [G] up through my head, [C] he made it clear [E] he wasn't looking [Bb] for a [F] fight.
[G] He said, give [Bb] me all your gold.
I want your money, [C] not your life, if you try to make a move [Bb] I won't be [F] twice.
[G] I told him you could have my cash [Bb] but you know I gotta ask [C] what made you wanna [G] live this kind of life?
He said, there ain't no rest for the wicked.
Money [Gm] don't grow on [C] trees.
I [G] got bills to pay, I got miles to be.
There ain't [A] nothing in this [Gm] world for free.
[G] I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back, though you know I wish I could.
I know there ain't no rest for the wicked until we close [Am] our eyes for good.
[G] [Gm] [C] [G] [Gm]
[G] Well now a couple [Bb] hours passed and I was sitting [C] in my house.
The day was winding [E] down and coming [Bb] to an [F] end.
[G] And so I turned to the TV [Bb] and flipped it over [C] to the news.
And what I saw [G] I almost couldn't comprehend.
I saw a rich man in a coat [Bb] seat taking money [C] from the church.
He stuffed his bank [Bb] account with righteous dollar [F] bills.
[G] But even still I can't say moose [Bb] because I know [C] we're all the same.
Oh yes we all [G] seek out to satisfy those thrills.
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked.
Money don't grow [Gm] on trees.
[C]
[G] We got bills to pay, we got [Am] miles to be.
[G] There ain't [Am] nothing in this [Gm] world for free.
[C]
[Gm] I know we [G] can't slow [Gm] down, we can't hold back, though you know we wish we could.
I know there ain't no rest for the wicked [G] until we close our eyes for good.
[Em]
