[Verse 1]
I was [E]walkin' down the street when out the
[G]corner of my eye
I saw a [A]pretty little thing approachin' [G]me[D]
She said, "I [E]never seen a man
who [G]looked so all alone
Oh, could you [A]use a little compa[G]ny?[D]
If you [E]pay the right price,
your [G]evening will be nice
And you can [A]go and send me on my [G]way"[D]
I said, "You're [E]such a sweet young thing,
oh, why you [G]do this to yourself?"
She [A]looked at me and [G]this is what she [D]said

[Chorus 1]
"Oh, there [E]ain't no rest
for the [G]wicked[A][D]
[E]Money don't grow on [G]trees[A]
[D]I got b[E]ills to pay, I got m[G]ouths to f[A]eed
[D]There ain't [E]nothin' in this world for [G]free[A]
[D]Oh no, I [E]can't slow down, I [G]can't [A]hold [D]back
Though you [E]know I wish I [G]could[A]
[D]Oh no, there [E]ain't no rest for the [G]wicked[A]
[D]Until we [E]close our eyes for [G]good"[A][D]

[Verse 2]
Not even [E]fifteen minutes later, I'm still
[G]walkin' down the street
When I saw the [A]shadow of a
man creep out of [G]sight[D]
And then he [E]swept up from behind, he put
a [G]gun up to my head
He made it [A]clear he wasn't
lookin' for a [G]fight[D]
He said, [E]"Give me all you've got,
I want your [G]money, not your life
But if you [A]try to make a move,
I won't think [G]twice"[D]
I told him, [E]"You can have my cash,
but first, you [G]know I gotta ask
What made you [A]wanna live this kind of [E]life?"

[Chorus 2]
He said, "There [E]ain't no rest
for the [G]wicked[A][D]
[E]Money don't grow on [G]trees[A]
[D]I got b[E]ills to pay, I got m[G]ouths to f[A]eed
[D]There ain't [E]nothin' in this world for [G]free[A]
[D]Oh no, I [E]can't slow down, I [G]can't [A]hold [D]back
Though you [E]know I wish I [G]could[A]
[D]Oh no, there [E]ain't no rest for the [G]wicked[A]
[D]Until we [E]close our eyes for [G]good" [A]Yea[D]h

[Verse 3]
[E]couple hours passed and I was
[G]sitting in my house
The day was [A]winding down and
coming to an [G]end[D]
And so I [E]turned on the TV
and flipped it [G]over to the news
And what I [A]saw, I almost
couldn't compre[G]hend[D]
I saw a [E]preacher man in cuffs,
he'd taken [G]money from the church
He'd stuffed his [A]bank account with
righteous dollar [G]bills[D]
But even [E]still I can't say much because
I [G]know we're all the same
Oh yes, we [A]all seek out to satisfy
those [E]thrills

[Chorus 3]
You know there [E]ain't no rest
for the [G]wicked[A][D]
[E]Money don't grow on [G]trees[A]
[D]We got [E]bills to pay, we got [G]mouths to [A]feed
[D]There ain't [E]nothin' in this world for [G]free[A]
[D]Oh no, we [E]can't slow down,
we [G]can't [A]hold [D]back
Though you [E]know we wish we [G]could[A]
[D]Oh no, there [E]ain't no rest for the [G]wicked[A]
[D]Until we [E]close our eyes for good"
