[Intro]
G Em
[Verse 1]
I'm a writer, I'm a poet
Out of spiter and I know it
G F C G
I don't need to hear your guitar
F C D C Em
I'll write my review from the bar, should go far
[Verse 2]
I'm a critic with position
Paralytic, you musician
G F C G
I'm weary of punk and new wave
F C D C Em Em-A11
I invented them both anyway, sad to say
[Chorus]
G D
Uptown, hanging around
F C
Street bar, town to town
G F
I'm a rigger
G F
With a trigger
G D
Up, down, round and round
F C
Feet don't touch the ground
G F
I'm a-ready
G C ~ Em
I'm a dedicated hound
[Verse 3]
I'm a wino, midnight worker
With a biro, I'm a lurker
G F C G
I'll get you a deal in the chart
F C D C Em Em-A11
Or stop you before you can start, that's my art
[Chorus]
G D
Uptown, hanging around
F C
Street bar, town to town
G F
I'm a rigger
G F
With a trigger
G D
Up, down, round and round
F C
Feet don't touch the ground
G F
I'm a-ready
G C ~ Em
I'm a dedicated hound
Instrumental: Em G Em
[Verse 4]
I'm a prier and a tryer
And I'm a liar on the wire
G F C G
Just leave me your dressing room key
F C D C Em Em-A11
You did say that booze was for me, better be
[Chorus]
G D
Uptown, hanging around
F C
Street bar, town to town
G F
I'm a rigger
G F
With a trigger
G D
Up, down, round and round
F C
Feet don't touch the ground
G F
I'm a-ready
G C ~ Em
I'm a dedicated hound
[Outro]
