F Em
I want my money back, I'm down here drowning in your fat
Dm Em
You got me on my knees, Praying for everything you lack
F Em
I ain't afraid of you, I'm just a victim of your fears
Dm Em
You cower in your tower, Praying that I'll disappear
F Em
I got another plan, One that requires me to stand
Dm Em
On the stage or in the street, Don't need no microphone or beat
F Em
And when you hear this song, If you ain't dead sing along
Dm Em
Bang and strum to these here drums, Till you get where you belong
[Chorus]
F Bb Dm
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
F Bb Dm
I'm living hand to mouth, you wanna be somebody?
Bb F Bb
See somebody? Try and free somebody?
Dm Bb F
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
Dm Bb F N.C.
I'm living hand to mouth, Hand to mouth

[Verse 2]
C F C
I wrote a song for you today, while I was sitting in my room
Dm C
I jumped up on my bed today, and I played it on a broom
F C
I didn't think that it would be a song that you would hear
Dm C
But when I played it in my head I made you reappear
F C
I wrote a video for it, and I acted out each part
Dm C
And then I took your picture out, and taped it to my heart
F C
I've taped you to my heart, dear I've taped you to my heart
Dm C
And if you pull away from me you'll tear my life apart
[Chorus]
F Bb Dm
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
F Bb Dm
I'm living hand to mouth, you wanna be somebody?
Bb F Bb
See somebody? Try and free somebody?
Dm Bb F
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
Dm C
I'm living hand to mouth,
[Bridge]
F C
Call the police, I'm strapped to the teeth
Dm C
And liable to disregard your every belief
F C
Call on the law, I'm fixin' to draw
Dm C
A line between what is and seems, and call up a brawl
F C
Call 'em right now,'cause I'm about to go pow
Dm C
I'm standing on the threshold of the ups and the downs
F C
Call up a truce ‘cause I'm about to bust loose
Dm
Protect ya neck 'cause son I'm breaking out of my noose
[Chorus]
F Bb Dm
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
F Bb Dm
I'm living hand to mouth, you wanna be somebody?
Bb F Bb
See somebody? Try and free somebody?
Dm Bb F
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
Dm Bb F Bb
I'm living hand to mouth, hand to mouth,
[Chorus]
Dm Bb F
I got a list of demands, written on the palm of my hands
Bb
I ball my fist, you're gonna know where I stand
Dm Bb F
I'm living hand to mouth, you wanna be somebody?

See somebody? Try and free somebody?

Hand to mouth, Hand to mouth
