Verse 1
G 
Find
D 
C 
yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of town
G 
Where death waits in the darkness with a weapon
D 
C 
to cut some stranger down
G 
Sleeping with an empty bottle,

C 
he's a sad and an empty hearted man
G 
All he needs is a job, and a little respect,
D 
C 
so he can get out while he can
