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