Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  came hungry
 Came to make me some money
 Got my blues from the karate kid
 And my roots from Bugs Bunny
 x2
Well  I burned out and got older
 My spirit smoldered
 Stuffed a sock in my pants
 And tossed a chip on my shoulder
 x2
Well  I gave up thinking
 And I took up drinking
 To emanicipate my mind like
 Abraham Lincoln
 x2
Then  I robbed and I ripped
 Wagging my lips
 Singing bibbidibobbidibibbidibib
 x2
I  got drunk and I smoked a lot of cigarettes
I  got a hangover but I never got rid of it
 My  heart got broke and my brain got  bruised
I  still don't know a  thing about the tough guy  blues
There  was this little flirt
 Popping out of her shirt
 Smiling and laughing
 Hanging on to each word
So  innocent and sweet
 Rockin' to the beat
 I tapped that keg
 Like she tapped her little feet
A  girl half my age in love with me
I  got busted at age thirty three
 My  heart got broke and my brain got  bruised
 But I still  don't know  a thing about the tough guy  blues
So  high so fast that's when I crashed
Down  in the gutter tossed out of my  ass
Like  a cartoon Saturday morning
 I wave by still hovering
 And splat on the ground
 Know the true meaning of suffering
 x2
I  got a reason for the anger
 Like a blind blues singer
 I gouge out my eyes
 And let a stray dog lick my finger
 x2
I  get sad sometimes act suicidal
I  look like Jesus but I've never read the Bible
My  heart got broke and my brain got bruised
 But I still  don't know a  thing about the tough guy  blues
