Damn James Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Yeah, that day, I saw
[Em]Jimmy walk[Am]in' downtown
He said, hey,
today's the day my luck [B]will [Am]change
Just got paid,
and I'm bound to play the live trip
[Em]Go h[Am]it big,
then I'll [Em]walk out on this [Am]job
Got [B]two kid[Am]s,
my old lady needs some money
[Em]Times [Am]is hard,
so I've [Em]got to get this [Am]cash
Best believe, I've tried it [B]all,
I'm getting desper[Am]ate
And if you'd the things I'd [B]seen,
you'd be [Am]the same
Yeah, one way or another,
I'm gonna get [F]mine
[Am]Cause the man stepped on
me for the last [F]time
[Am]Oh one way, oh another,
I'm gonna get mine
[F]Spent [Am]too long, worked too hard,
now it's my [C]time
[Em]And [Am]that day was the
last [Em]time I [Am]saw
Jimmy
With a grin, he just turned
[B]and walked [Am]away
In his hands were a [Em]bottle and a pis[Am]tol
And his eyes were washed
[Em]over with bad [Am]news
I just knew when I heard
[Em]it on the radi[Am]o
And I guess what the old
[Em]folks say [B]is [Am]true
[Em]You [Am]can push, you can s[Em]hove,
knock [Am]him down and beat him mad
But break his spirit and he'll come [Em]back
after [Am]you[Em][Am][Em][Am]
Yeah, one way or another,
I'm gon' get [F]mine
[Am]Cause the man stepped on
me for the last [F]time
[Am]Oh, one way or another,
I'm gon' get mine
[F]Spent [Am]too long, worked too hard,
now it's my [F]time
[Am]Yeah, one way or another,
I'm gonna get mine
[F]Cause [Am]the man stepped on
me for the [F]last [Am]time[F]
[Am]Oh, one way or another,
I'm gonna get mine
[F]Spent [Am]too long, worked too hard,
now it's my [F]time[Am][Em][F][Em][Am]
[F]
[Em]They say
[Am]James, he went down [Em]on to th[B]e corner
[Am]When[Em] he pl[Am]ayed,
he [B]bet everything he [Am]had
And they say that he nev
[B]er saw it com[Am]ing
Pulled out fast,
but the bullets [B]had his name
[Am]Bring it in.
