Desperate People by John D. Hale Band
Desperate People
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
F C C/B Am Am x2
[Verse 1]
F C C/B Am
Well I'm kinda in a pinch, need to make a quick buck
F C C/B Am
That ain't nothin' new, I'm gettin pretty damn used to bad luck
F C C/B Am
Guess I's tired of bein' broke, that's why did what I done
F C C/B Am
Just a desperate man with a mind like a loaded gun
[Verse 2]
F C C/B Am
Well old man Jones, he lives around the next bend
F C C/B Am
Growin' up we heard the tales of all the cash he kept hid
F C C/B Am
Since his wife passed away, well his mind is fading fast
F C C/B Am
So he won't even notice when I rob him of his cash
[Chorus]
F C F C
The line that starts to fade between whats wrong and right
F C C/B Am
Black and white, they turn to grey, disappear into the night
F C F C
Please tell my sweet dear mother I never meant to cause her shame
F C C/B Am
Tell Daddy I didn't mean to disgrace the family name
F C C/B Am
But it's just that desperate people do desperate things
[Instrumental]
F C C/B Am Am x2
[Verse 3]
F C C/B Am
The screen door rattled and the old steps creaked
F C C/B Am
My hearts a-pounding heavy and my knees are gettin weak
F C C/B Am
I was stumbling thru the dark when I heard a voice call
F C C/B Am
Don't you take another step or this hammer is gonna fall
[Verse 4]
F C C/B Am
Well I don't know why I ran, guess a feeling from my gut
F C C/B Am
Well I all but made the wood before I felt the lead cut
F C C/B Am
Well my hearts a-beatin weaker and the air is growin thin
F C C/B Am
I said a little prayer as I drew my last breath in
[Chorus]
F C F C
The line that starts to fade between whats wrong and right
F C C/B Am
Black and white, they turn to grey, disappear into the night
F C F C
Please tell my sweet dear mother I never meant to cause her shame
F C C/B Am
Tell Daddy I didn't mean to disgrace the family name
F C C/B Am Am
But it's just that desperate people do desperate things
F C C/B Am Am
Yeah it's just that desperate people do desperate things
[Outro]
F C C/B Am Am
