Im Gonna Live The Life I Sing About In My Song

Am    Dm

[Verse]

          Am       Dm                      Am
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song
                      Dm                 E
I'm gonna stand for right always showing the wrong
              Am                         Dm                 Am
If I'm in the crowd, if I'm alone on the streets or in my home
                   Dm     E                Am     Dm   Am
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song

                             Dm              Am
Everyday, everywhere, on the busy thoroughfare
                 Dm          Am          Dm
Some may watch me, some may spot me
         E
Say I'm foolish but I don't care

[Chorus]

              Am              Dm
Cause I can't sing one thing, then live or not
      F
Be a slave by day, and a devil under cover
          Am                Dm                     Am      Dm    Am
I got to live the life I sing about, yes, in my song.

[Verse]

                               Dm
If at day, if at night, I must always walk in the light
        Am     Dm      Am    Dm         E
Some mistake me, underrate me, because I wanna do it right
                Am
Well I cannot march on the streets, shout all day Sunday,
  Dm                         F
or crawl on my knees for the man on a monday

[Chorus]

            Am               E                  Am
I've got to live the life I sing about in my song
    Dm          Am
Oh yes, in my song
                     Dm     E                Am      Dm         Am
I've got to life the life I sing about in my song, yes in my song

                               Dm          E
I'm gonna stand for justice, and always shout the wrong
              Am
Cause I can't sing one thing, then live or not
     F
Be a slave by day, and a devil under cover
          Am                Dm                     Am      Dm    Am
I got to live the life I sing about, yes, in my song.
