[Ab] [E] [Gb]
[Abm] [E]
[Abm] I know a man [E] who had nothing.
[Gb]
[Abm] He was a poor [E] man all [Gb] his life.
[Abm] He lived with Jack by [E] his [Gb] roadside, [Abm] with starving kids and [E] a loving wife.
[Abm] [E] [Gb]
[Abm] [E]
[Abm] He went to church [E] every Sunday.
[Gb]
[Abm] He prayed from [E] morning until [Gb]
night.
[Abm] He said, good Lord, why have [E] you forsaken [Gb]
me?
[Abm] And everything I did [E] I thought [Gb] was right.
[Ebm] But now my life's [Abm] coming to an end.
[E] There's only one thing I'm [B] wishing for.
[Ebm] All my days [Abm] I have never seen.
So [E] I hope you won't ignore what [Gb] I'm asking for.
[B] Oh, even as I [E] hide, just a young man is torn inside.
[B] In my feet, a pair of shoes [E] that I haven't [Gb] worn in a long [B] time.
Holding a gun in my [E] arms, trying to cause some kind of outburst.
[B] Burning me with a glassy [E] beat as it gets us shining.
[B] Oh, [Gb] honey, when [E] I die, [B] you better go [Gb] say a prayer like [E] you lied.
[B] You're gonna use up [Gb] all the money that [E] I saved.
[B] Because I [Gb] don't want to [E] lie in a poor man's grave.
[Abm]
[E] [Gb] [Abm]
[E] [Abm] I know a man [Dbm] who had nothing.
[Ebm] [Abm] He dreamed of satsang [E] sheets all [Gb] his life.
[Abm] He [Eb] lived and burned [Abm] like a [Gb] dog, [Abm] licking every boot he
[E] sees just to survive.
[Abm] He comes home drunk [E] every night, [Gb] [Abm] wakes up the kids,
[E] and talks to his wife.
[Abm] He said, honey, you have [E] been so good [Gb] to me.
[Abm] I only wish we [E] had a better [Gb] [Ebm] life.
Because now my life's [Abm] sunk into a lake,
[E] and there's only one thing I'm [B] ashamed for.
[Ebm] Oh, all my days [Abm] I have lived in shame.
[E] So I hope you won't ignore just [Gb] what I'm asking for.
Oh, [B] honey, when I [E] die, when you're young and cold and [B] tired,
you'll be a pair of [E] shoes that I haven't [Gb] worn in a long [B] time.
But in a garden of [E] hearts, cut across a pile of [B] blocks,
burning me with a glassy [E] beat as it gets us shining.
[B] Oh, [Gb]
honey, when [E] I die, [B] you better go [Gb] say a prayer [E] like you lied.
[B] We're going to use up [Gb] all the money [E] that I saved and gave.
[B] Because [Gb] I don't want to [E] die in a poor man's, poor [B] man's grave.
Oh, [Gb]
honey, [E] when I die, [B] you better go [Gb] say a prayer [E] like you lied.
[B] We're going to use up [Gb] all the money [E] that I saved and [B] gave.
Because [Gb] I don't want to [E] die in a poor man's grave.
