Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I w[A]as brough[D]t in this world [G]1962,
I [D]didn't have much choice [A]you see.
But by the [D]time I was eight,
I could [G]tell it was too late,
I was [D]already [A]barking up
the wrong [D]tree.
When I was in school you [G]thought I was a fool,
[D]In trouble,
Breaking all the [A]rules.
I was [D]absent from class,
My daddy [G]spanked my bare ass,
But [D]I sure tried [A]hard to be [D]cool.

[Verse 2]
[G]Born to lose, [D]was what they said,
You [A]know I was better off [D]dead.[E][F#]
[G]Born to lose, [D]you're just bad news,
You [A]don't get [G]a second chance.
[D]

[Verse 3]
It was a hot summer night in [G]mid July,
A [D]hangover and a black [A]eye.
Your momma [D]said I was a loser,
A [G]dead end cruiser,
And [D]deep inside I [A]know that she was [D]right.

[Verse 4]
[G]Born to lose, [D]was what they said,
You [A]know I was better off [D]dead.[E][D]
[G]Born to lose, [D]you're just bad news,
You [A]don't get [G]a second chance.

[Verse 5]
I tried to [D]get myself a job
Because that's the [G]way that
Things are, want to [D]have nice
Things and go [A]far, well [D]I'm sorry
Honey, I [G]ain't got much money
But I [D]can sure play this [A]here old

[Verse 6]
Gui[D]tar. As the years went on, I
[G]Made a few mistakes it was a
[D]Trouble bound for this young
[A]Man. The police [D]knockin' at my
Door, "Well he [G]don't live here no
More, and he's [D]playin' in a [A]rock 'n'
Roll [D]band."[E]
[D]Born

[Verse 7]
[G]to lose, was[D] what they said,
You [A]know I was better off
[D]dead.[G][D][A][G][D]
[G]Born [D]to [A]los[D]e,[G]
[D]you're just bad news,
You [A]don't get [G]a second chance.
