AAAEAAm A Em A It is a bad time to be poor, Em A 'Cause we don't give a sh*t no more. Em A If you want to go for help, don't look next door. Em Amus4 The line's been drawn and staked outside. Em A I see to trying to lay the blame Em A On the folks in charge who hide in shame Em A For growing up with an open purse, Em Ab5 And learning not about being alive. G Em Dm `` A Ab5 Haven't I done enough to burn out? G Em Dm Asus4 Haven't I been there to help out? EAAAEAAAAmus4 Em A It is a bad time to be young. Em A What's left to us can't be undone Em A Without it riding on our backs Em A When young and poor go hand in hand. Em A It is a bad time to be poor Em A It's a bad time to be poor. (chorus) BRIDGE: A Ab5 Dm A Ab5 Dm..... A Asus4 A Em... Em A It is a bad time to be poor Em A It is a bad time to be poor Asus4 A..... And feeling winter through a crack in the door. ======================================= RIFF P1: A Asus4 A Em A e----------------------0---2--2---0-----------------| B---2----------3---------------------------3----2---| G---------------------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------------| RIFF PT2: A Asus4 A Em A e------------------------------------------------------------------| B------------------------------------------------------------------| G----2------2-----2---------0-----0-------------------0------------| D--------------------------------------------------4-------------2-| A------------------------------------------------------------------| E------------------------------------------------------------------| RIFF PT3: A Asus4 A Em A e--------------------0------5--5--5---3---2----0--------| B---2-------3-------------------------------------------| G-------------------------------------------------------| D-------------------------------------------------------| A-------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------| Asus4 chord: e---0---| B---3---| G---2---| D---2---| A---0---| E---x---|
