Dear Landlord

C                                              E7
Dear Landlord, please don't put a price on my soul,
Am            Am/G  F                Em      Dm
My burden is heavy, my dreams are beyond control.
F                             F7
When that steamboat whistle blows,
Bb
I'm gonna give you all I got to give,
C             Dm7    C        C7
And I do hope you receive it well,
          F         Gm                  Dm     F G
Depending on the way you feel that you live.

[Verse 2]

C                                               E7
Dear Landlord, please heed these words that I speak,
Am                      Am/G F                   Em     Dm
I know you've suffered much, but in this you are not so unique.
F                                     F7
All of us at times we might work too hard
Bb
To have it too fast and too much,
C               Dm7                  C             C7
And anyone can fill his life up with things he can see
F      Gm            Dm    F G
But he just cannot touch.

[Verse 3]

C                                      E7
Dear Landlord, please don't dismiss my case,
Am                Am/G  F                        Em        Dm
I'm not about to argue, I'm not about to move to no other place.
F                                   F7
Now each of us has his own special gift,
Bb
And you know this was meant to be true,
C          Dm7         C       C7
And if you don't underestimate me,

F            Gm       Dm   F G
I won't underestimate you.
