Adam Brand - Losing Streak
Intro: G C G C
G
That tinpot town went and spat me out
C
Onto that eastern track
G
My Dad he gave me a month or two
C
Before the city spat me back
D
A flat bed truck picked me up
C
And I crossed that great divide
D
I had 3 good days 'til I spent my pay
C D
Now I'm on a downward slide
Chorus
G C G D
Oh I'm on a losing streak
G C
Down a paddle I'm up the creek
G
Mercy be
D G G C G G C G
I'm on a losing streak
G
The city don't place any worth
C
On a small town roustabout
G
I've never seen so many folks
C
But so few who'll help you out
D
Got a kitchen job to earn a bob
C
Doing nine hours every night
D
I called my Dad about six weeks in
C D
And said "Ya mongrel, you were right!"
