    G                           C                      G
I'm up every morning before the sunshine comes rollin' in
                                     C                          D   D/C-D/B-D/A
That rooster starts crowin' and that reminds me, I need to feed him
    C                     G
And every day's the same, but every day's different
             C                  D
'Cause every day I go deeper in debt, and


CHORUS:
                  C                               G
You can't cash my checks, and you can't feel this hunger
                F        C                            D
You can push me into the water, but you can't hold me under
                 C                          Em   C
You can bring me down but you can't make me beg
                G    D                      G
You can take my word, but you can't cash my checks


It's so hard to stay honest in a world that's headed to hell
You can't make a good livin' these days 'cause the truth just won't sell
So if you go out my back door just over the hill
You'll see all these plants that's been payin' my bills, but

                 C                          Em  C
You can bring me down but you can't make me beg
                G    D                      G
You can take my word, but you can't cash my checks
                     D/
You can take my word, but you can't cash my checks
