Capo I

Dm G   Dm G
        
       Dm        G         Dm      G
It's a hard world to get a break in
        Dm         G          Dm   G
All the good things have been taken
    Dm                     C    Bb       
But girl there are ways to make certain things pay
C          Dm                         C    Bb
Though I'm dressed in these rags I'll wear sable
     C   D
Some day
       
Hear what I...
        
G F                   
   say I'm gonna ride the serpent
G F                  
   No more time spent sweatin' rent
G F 
   Hear my command I'm breakin' loose
G F            
   It ain't no use
G F 
   Holdin' me down
       G 
Stick around
But baby (but baby)
Remember (remember)

It's my life and I'll do what I want
C       Dm            F            G
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
F           G
Show me I'm wrong
F            G
Hurt you sometime
    F                           G   F/G
But someday I'll treat you real fine

            Dm   G          Dm     G
There'll be women and their fortunes
         Dm  G          Dm     G
Who just love to mother orphans
    Dm                  C   Bb       
Are you gonna cry, when I'm squeezin' 'em dry
C      Dm        C         Bb
Takin' all I can get, no regrets
     C   D
When I...

       G  F
Openly lie
               
   And leave only money
G F                
   Believe me honey, that money

G F           
   Can you believe, I ain't no saint
G F        
   Who complains
G F   
   So girl cut out
    G
Any doubt
But baby (but baby)
Remember (remember)

C       Dm            F         G
It's my life and I'll do what I want
C       Dm            F            G
It's my mind and I'll think what I want
F           G
Show me I'm wrong
F            G
Hurt you sometime
    F                           G   F/G
But someday I'll treat you real fine

 C       Dm           F          G
(It's my life and I'll do what I want) Don't push me
(It's my mind and I'll think what I want) It's my life
(It's my life and I'll do what I want) And I can do what I want
(It's my mind and I'll think what I want) You can't tell me
(It's my life and I'll do what I want)
