[INTRO] Switch between G and C9

          G
There's a man, on the corner,
          G
with His hands holding tightly to his
C9
Hat so it wont blow away.

        G
With a girl, with her hands in her
G                               C9
Pockets, holding tightly to her Money,

so she wont blow it today.
             G           C9
Its all the same.  Every day.

         G
When he gets home from work
           G
Theres his children already in bed
   C9
Without seeing his face today.
         G
And the girl with empty pockets
          G
Spent her money
                                 C9
She might as well just throw her wallet in the fireplace.


    Am
And she is the L and
C
he is the O
    G
For us, liars
     D

     Am
And she is the V and

    Em     D           C  (Here, leave the high e string open 
until after
                   'you', then switch to C9. See below for clarification.)
And we     might       spell you,

                       G            C9
but we're Nothing like you.

          G
When his kids grow up old and have
G                                         C9
Children of their own, they swear They'll never
                             C9
wear the same size hat their father wears.
         G
And the girl, now a woman, says
     G                             C9
Shes happy and thanks god for Jewelry

and single millionaires.

    Am
And she is the H and
C
he is the O
    G
For us, humble
D
orphans.

    Am
And she is the P and
C
he is the E For
   G

    Em    D        C (same as before)
And we    might    spell you,
                        G
But we're nothing like you.
