[Chorus]
G C
This old hundred dollars it won't go far
C G
it came from singing songs in a downtown bar
G C
for a little while you could say its mine
C G Gadd11
if you want a piece you better get in line
[Verse 1]
G D G
I pay eight hundred dollars for a two bit room
G C G
when it rains the storm comes through
G C
its the price you pay to live in town
C G Gadd11
well there's always something shakin with the sun goes down
[Verse 2]
G D G
There's some boys playing over at the Troubadour
G C G
you swear you'll drink two beer and not one more
G C
the next thing you know you stumble home at five
C G Gadd11
at least it makes you feel like your still alive
[Chorus]
G C
This old hundred dollars it won't go far
C G Gadd11
it came from singing songs in a downtown bar
G C
for a little while you could say its mine
C G Gadd11
if you want a piece you better get in line

[Verse 3]
G D G
I got a phone in my pocket it was a gift from a man
G C G
know I'm paying ninety dollars for a forty dollar plan
G C
its just another thing that don't seem right
C G Gadd11
well after a while you don't know who to fight
[Verse 4]
G D G
Pick yourself up out of the ditch
G C G
dust yourself off you say life's a bitch
G C
I've done it before and I'll do it again
C G Gadd11
I been walking this road since I don't know when
[Chorus]
G C
This old hundred dollars it won't go far
C G Gadd11
it came from singing songs in a downtown bar
G C
for a little while you could say its mine
C G Gadd11
if you want a piece you better get in line
[Verse 5]
G D G
You find yourself a band and you work real hard
G C G
then you make a record on your credit card
G C
you try to sell a few but the man at the store
C G
tells you nobody pays for music anymore
[Chorus]
G C
This old hundred dollars it won't go far
C G Gadd11
it came from singing songs in a downtown bar
G C
for a little while you could say its mine
C G Gadd11
if you want a piece you better get in line
