     Land of the Bottom Line
               by John Gorka

          I have chorded the song as if played in first postion.
          However, he plays with a capo at the 4th fret.

          Dsus2= (xx0230@1)xx0210

     Intro:  Basically same as the Verse

     Verse:

     C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)            Em (022000@1)    I couldn't bribe a wino, on what I used to make

        C (x32010@1)            G (320003@1)              DDsus2 D (xx0232@1)    My fortune was as sure as the wind

     C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)            Em (022000@1)    But I was free to wonder, time was on my hands

        C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)              DDsus2 D (xx0232@1)    It was mine to burn and to bend


     Chorus:

     Em (022000@1)        C (x32010@1)      D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)    Freedom for freedom, call that an even scheme

     C (x32010@1)             G (320003@1)                  DDsus2 D (xx0232@1)    Give me time to wonder and to dream

     Em (022000@1)       C (x32010@1)    D (xx0232@1)               Em (022000@1)    I'll take the money, they'll take the time

     C (x32010@1)         G (320003@1)                     DDsus2 D (xx0232@1)    Down to the land of the bottom line

     Em (022000@1)    To the bottom line.


     Verses

     Then there came a chance, to make some steady dough
     Bouncing up my alley to the door
     You fill your clothes with keys, and dammned responsibilities
     Trading the maybe for the sure.

     (Chorus)

     All I ever wanted, was to be a kid and play
     Fighting every change along the way
     I don't like work, I don't like waste
     And I don't like waiting for a taste.

     (Chorus)
