Verse 1
My (G major) mother (A major) (D major) (D minor)
(A major)
(D major) was a good woman,
my father was a good man too
And I'll try to live by
that old golden rule
Nobody (G major) likes me,
I don't know the reason why (D major)
By the (A major) help of the maker
I find (G major) out before I (D major) die (A major)
I (D major) help the poor and needy
(A major) Give my hand to the (D major) blind
No matter what I do
People don't pay that no mind
Nobody (G major) cares about me
Many I don't know the reason why (D major)
But by the (A major) help of a maker
I'll find out (G major) some day by and (D major) by (A major)
Fools are (D major) made not born that
you understand
No matter who you are
I want to be a friend to every man
Nobody (G major) cares about me
I don't know the reason why (D major)
By the (A major) help of the maker
I'll find out (G major) by and by (D major)
(D minor) Play (D major) it for (A major) me, Benny (D major)

Verse 2
(D major)
like to know from where
But the good land for me
Lord I shouldn't give you there
Nobody cares (G major) about me
I don't know the reason why (D major)
By the (A major) help of the maker
I'll find (G major) out someday by and (D major) by (A flatdim)
(D major) Yes, honey boy (A major) (D major) (A flatdim)
(D major) (G major)
(D major) (A major) (G major)
(D major) (A major)
When your (D major) mother and father is gone,
your daughter's your best friend.
When your last dollar's gone,
you're like a road that has no end.
Nobody cares (G major) about me,
I don't know the reason why (D major)
Maybe by (A major) the help of the maker,
I'll (G major) find out before I (D major) die
(G major) Play some (D major) blues for (A major) me now, Brian
