[Intro]
Em    C    G    D - Cdim  x2

[Verse]
     Em                      C
I’ve never been so hungry,         
           G                          D             Cdim
Seems like twenty-two years I’ve been looking for a fight
Em                                C
Never stayed in school for long,     couldn’t keep my patience on
G                           D               Cdim
   Never had the motivation quite to get my timing right


[PRE–CHORUS] 1 + 2:
C                       G
  (I want my story to begin)/(I want to celebrate my sins)
          D                      Em      D
There’s a time to save up and a time     to
C                             G
Spend    I’m to young for the past tense
         D                   Cdim    Cdim    Cdim    D#dim    F#dim
All this worrying about what might   have    been



[Chorus]
Em                                   C
    Should have been a preacher man, let the good book show me where to
G                     D        Cdim
Stand in this earthly half-way home
Em                                  C
    Should have been a farmin’ man, teach my boy to plow the land
G                               D            Cdim          (Em    C    G    D   Cdim)
Leave this wicked winter just a couple acres greener when I go

     Em                       C
I’ve never been so thirsty to get my soul right
    G                           D             Cdim
But like a summer bug I’ve been burned by the blinding light
Em                               C
Never stayed in church for long, pop’lar peoples ‘n white folks songs
G                           D       Cdim
Sunday morning never was as real as Friday Night


[PRE–CHORUS] 2 + CHORUS


[BREAK] OVER VERSE CHORDS


[PRE–CHORUS 3] (one strum each):
C                             G
    Some day they’ll write my name up on a
D           Em                D
Stone and I won’t be there to see it
C                 G            D            Cdim   Cdim   Cdim   D#dim   F#dim
    Up on Calv’ry calling me I know they’ll say . . .

CHORUS x 2, second time a-capella
