It Works For Me

[D]  [D9]  [D]

Never[D] owned a brand new car never[D9] worked in a white [D]collar
Never[Bm] held a woman longer than I held one single dollar
Never[Em] went out chasin' rainbows cause there can't be that much to it
Even[A] if I found my[Asus4] pot of gold I'd p[A]robably piss right through it
          [D]          [D9]               [D]             ([D]-[A]-[Bm])
I can't remember ever wanting for one second of my life
    [Bm]                                           ([Bm]-[A]-[G])
Even if I did it cost too much to ever pay the price
        [G]                                                 ([G]-[D/F#]-[Em])
I don't dance out on the dark side ain't no secrets I can tell
So[Em] you don't have to say a prayer for[Asus4] me, I just said one for mys[D]elf

I'm livin' my [G]li-[A]-fe under[D] my terms
I'm callin' the [G]shots as [A]far as I can[Bm] see
I don't [G]owe nobody [A]nothin' I don't [D]answe[D/F#]r to a [G]soul
[D/F#]Might not w[Em]ork for you,  [A]   but it w[D]orks for me

[D]  [D9]  [D]

I've been[D] bent and bruised and broken and flat [D9]busted once or [D]twice
I brought [Bm]most of it upon myself but I never compromised
My [Em]pride's too hard to swallow so I've chewed a lot of it
Mild [A]mannered and soft[Asus4] hearted and hard h[A]eaded as you get
  [D]               [D9]                [D]                 ([D]-[A]-[Bm])
I live out on the backroads where I walk my country mile
           [Bm]                                       ([Bm]-[A]-[G])
And if it's so good in the city why don't anybody smile
     [G]                                                  ([G]-[D/F#]-[Em])
The traffic's always heavy and the air ain't fit to breathe
I[Em] ain't saying that it's wrong for you[Asus4] it just don't make sense to [D]me
