intro: D#, A#
D# G#
I was brought in this world 1962,
D# A#
I didn't have much choice you see.
D# G#
But by the time I was eight, I could tell it was too late,
D# A# D#
I was already barking up the wrong tree.
D# G#
When I was in school you thought I was a fool,
D# A#
In trouble, Breaking all the rules.
D# G#
I was absent from class, My daddy spanked my bare ass,
D# A# D#
But I sure tried hard to be cool.
G# D#
Born to lose, was what they said,
A# D# fill
You know I was better off dead.
G# D#
Born to lose, you're just bad news,
A# G# D#
You don't get no second chance.

The police knockin' at my Door, "Well he don't live here noMore,
