[G]
It's called Angry Young Man.
Oh, yes.
[C]
[C]
[G] [Em] [Bm]
[C] [D]
[G] I got a lot of memories tied up in this place.
So [C] much time spent in so [G] little space.
What looked like a world through the eyes of a child
kind of [D] closes in only after a while.
It's a place to [Em] grow up and a place to [G] go.
Keep your [C] mouth shut and you do what [G] you're told.
I told mama the day the light rain
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
[C] Mama, if you could see me [G] right now
you'd be [C] so sure you'd fail me [G] somehow.
Mama, [Em] you never could [C] understand
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
I [C] [G]
[D] [G]
had a cheap hotel along with my home.
So many [C] people make you feel so [G] alone.
Dreams die easy out here in these streets.
Hearts grow [D] cold in the city heat.
And I ain't [Em] never been a patient [G] kind.
I [C] had to live like a pleaser, die [G] trying
at a filling station with a gun in my hand.
The only [D] way for an angry [G] young man.
[C] Mama, if you could see me [G] right now
you'd be so [C] sure you'd fail me [G] somehow.
Mama, [Em] you never could [C] understand
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
[C]
[G] [D]
[G] [D] I got a [G] lot of memories tied up in this place.
And they're out there [C] staring me right in the [G] face.
A lonely grave on the outskirts of [D] town.
It's three in the morning, ain't no one around.
Just like [Em] a ghost I come out [G] at night.
But I'll [C] be gone before the [G] morning light.
Mama, I hope that you understand
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
[C] Mama, if you could see me [G] right now
you'd be [C] so sure you'd fail me [G] somehow.
Mama, [Em] you never could [C] understand
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
[C] Mama, if you could see me [G] right now
you'd be [C] so sure you'd fail me [G] somehow.
Mama, [Em] you never could [C] understand
there ain't [D] no place for an angry [G] young man.
[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[Em] [C]
[D] [G] Yeah!
[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[Em] [C]
[D] [G]
[C]
[Em] [G]
Thank you so much.
[F] [Gm]
[N] You can either get through life or you can live it.
And if you want to live it, there's only two things you need.
