^Am People living their lives for you ^C on TV
They say they're ^G better than you and ^D you agree
^Am He says hold my calls from b ^C ehind those covered crosses
c ^G ome here boy... there ain't n ^D othing for free
^Am Another doctor's bill, ^C a lawyer's bill
Another cute cheap t ^G hrill, you know you love him if you p ^D ut him in your will
CHROUS: ^Am Who will s ^C ave your s ^G oul when it c ^D omes to the flower
^Am Who will s ^C ave your s ^G oul after all the l ^D ies that you told, boy
^Am Who will s ^C ave your s ^G oul if you won't ^D save your own?
^{Am C G D
Am} We try to hustle them, try to b ^C ustle them, try to cuss them
^G The cops want someone to bust down on O ^D rleans Avenue
^Am Another day, another do ^C llar, another war,
another to ^G wer went up to where the hom ^D eless had their homes
^Am So we pray to as many d ^C ifferent gods are there are
flo ^G wers but we call rel ^D igion our friend
^Am We're so worried about s ^C aving our souls
Afraid that G ^G od will take His toll that we f ^D orget to begin

^Am Some are walking, some are t ^C alking, some are stalking their
k ^G ill... you get social security, but it d ^D oesn't pay your bills
There are a ^Am ddictions to feed and there are m ^C ouths to pay
So you b ^G argain with the Devil, say you're o. ^D k. for today,
You say t ^Am hat you love them, take th ^C eir money and run
Say, it's been s ^G well, sweetheart, but it was j ^D ust one of those
th ^Am ings, those flings, those strings you've g ^C ot to cut,
So get o ^G ut on the streets, girls, and b ^D ust your butts.
