G (320003@1)                                           DFor (xx0232@1)twenty-two days I've stood in the welfare line
    D7 (xx0212@1)                               GWithout (320003@1)an education a job was hard to find
 			    G7 (320001@1)              CAnd (x32010@1)up in front of me were ten thousand plus nine
                         G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)             GAnd (320003@1)I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

G (320003@1)                                 DI (xx0232@1)tried to sell some pencils on the street
    D7 (xx0212@1)                           GBut (320003@1)found my luck to sell was just weak
			G7 (320001@1)              CI'm (x32010@1)ashamed to have to pretend that I am blind
                         G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)  G7But (320001@1)I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

     A (x02220@1)                               A7 (x02020@1)       DEveryday (xx0232@1)I say I'm getting on up put I keep going down

And I've signed every paper in town that I could sign
But I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime

Well the internal revenue department is having fits
They claim I underpaid them by six pence
If I wound up in court I'll serve out ninety-nine
Well I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime
Yes I'm up to my neck in I.O.U.'s and down to my last dime
