Capo 1

A                    D
Gimme all your money
                      A
The thief said with a grin
    G#          F#m     A
The gun started shaking 
                 B    A
In his trembling hand
        G#    F#m         A
I don’t wanna hurt no one
But I gotta make a stand
                    E                 D
You don’t know, the kind of shape I’m in

You’re all I got to live for
                   B    A
I might as well be dead
     G#          F#m    A
Do I have to end my life 
To make you understand
                    E                 D
You don’t know, the kind of shape I’m in

A                       D
Jesus please forgive me

I cried out in the night

You can make it right

Everynight I sing my songs
                A
Playin’ with my band
    G#         F#m    A
Sometimes they listen
                  B    A
I hope they understand

I don’t wanna hurt no one
I’m just tryin’ to make a stand
                    E                 D
You don’t know, the kind of shape I’m in
