I came here [D] looking for something [E] I couldn't find [A] anywhere else
Hey, I'm not trying to [D] be nobody
[E] I just want a chance to [A] be myself
I've spent a thousand [D] miles a-coming [E] Guess I've worn blisters [A] on my heels
Trying to find me something [D] better [E] Here on the streets of [A] Bakersfield
[D] [A] Hey, you don't [E] know me but you don't [D] like me [E] Say you care less [A] how I feel
But how many of you that [D] sit and judge me [E] Ever walk the streets of [A] [Bm] Bakersfield?
