[A] [D] [E]
[A] [D] [A]
I came [D] here looking for something [E] I couldn't find [A] anywhere else
But I don't want to be [D] nobody [E] Just want a chance to [A] be myself
I've done a thousand [D] miles of thumbing [E]
Yes, I've worn blisters [A] on my heels
Trying to find me [D] something better [E] On the streets of [A] Bakersfield
[D] [A] You don't know me, but [D] you don't like me [E] You say you care less [A] how I feel
How many of you that [D] sit and judge me [E] Ever walked the streets of [A] Bakersfield?

[A] [D] [A]
Spent some time in [D] San Francisco [E] Spent a night there [A] in the can
They threw this drunk man [D] in my jail cell [E] I took fifteen dollars from [A] that man
I left him my watch and my [D] old house key [E] I don't like folks thinking [A] that I'd steal
Then I thanked him as [D] he was sleeping [E] And I headed out for [A] Bakersfield
[D] [A] You don't know me, but you [D] don't like me [E]
You say you care less how [A] I feel
How many of you that sit [D] and judge me [E] Ever walked the streets of [A] Bakersfield?
How many of you that sit [D] and judge me [E]
Ever walked the streets of [A] Bakersfield?
