You Are My Incentive

     By Kevin Devine



         G                       D7                             C    C
Your bearings are shot and your car don't work like she used to
        G                          D7                       C        C
Your friends don't call and they don't even bother with offering excuses
      G                   D7                  C        C
Your TV is on, but it's always on, so it's useless
          G                  D7                        C           C
Just the awful news and the sorry truth that we're definitely sinking

        G       D7      C       D7       G     G       
So I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you
             D7                       C        D7        G      G
You'll just hurt your chest and your face'll turn bright blue
         D7             C          D7                         C          D7
This is how it's gonne be,This is how it'll be and there's nothing that we 
     G    G
can do
             D7                             C       D7        G     G 
And if you start believing that I'll stop holding my breath too

               G                         D7                          C
You've been praying for change but you ain't seen a church since the 10th 
      C
grade
      G                      D7                            C
You cry at your job, don't believe in your vote, and never celebrate your 
        C   
birthday
        G                   D7                 C                 C
So you set up a dinner to make you feel less desperate, and worthless
         G                       D7                         C  
But your dad gets drunk so your mom throws a fit while your man hits on the 
       C
waitress

       G       D7       C      D7      G     G
So I wouldn't waste my time if I were you
             D7                  C     D7        G      G
You'll just snap your spine and strip away your youth
         D7            C            D7                           C         D7
This is how it's gonne be, This is how it i'll be and there's nothing that we 
    G       G
can do
             D7                             C       D7     G    G
And if you start believing that I'll stop wasting my time too
 
                          G
Because you're my incentive
        C      D7      G      G      G      G
And if you go, I go too
