Intro: G     Am     C   D   G   

             G                Am    
The air was cold, oh, and the money was tight
               C                                   G
I clung to her body that night pretending I was in love
            G                     Am
See I been told that this kind of living aint right
                C                                 G
but it becomes hard to fight when it fits like a glove

         Am                             Em
And I'm tired of dodging blows under the table
        Am                          C
I can't do what I been told, living young but growing old

           G                             C
And I say, I'm just holding on for my survival
     G                                D
And I can't ever seem to just let it be
   G                            C
My wheels keep rollin' on even though my money's gone
       G               D              G
Well, Imma go home and pray for the revival

                   G                     Am
See my father was made straight from the salt of the earth
                     C                                          G
He taught me bout a dollar bills worth, he thought me how to survive
              G               Am
Cain't be a slave, losing my life to my work 
                C                                     G
Aint easy and I know it's gon hurt, but it keeps me alive

                    Am                                Em
Said, I think it's time for me to go while I'm still able
        Am                          C
I can't do what I been told, living young but growing old

            G                             C
And I say, I'm just holding on for my survival
     G                               D
And I can't ever seem to just let it be
    G                            C
My wheels keep rollin' on even though my money's gone
       G               D               G        C
