      A
I was born in the middle of nowhere

Found me in a sack

I never knew no love or affection
                                D
So I never let it held me back

A
Now the time has moved along

And I'm wiser as I'm older

Well balanced? That I am
                                        C
I've got a chip on each of my shoulders
C#5      D
I'm on a mission to spread the word
                            E5 F#5 G5 G#5 A
Of the meaning of the blues
                                 E
So watch out now, here's Johnny!


  G             A    
Believe I'm bad news
            E F F# G
Oh yes I am
            A
Oh yes I am

Thanks to Freddie Edwards for the slow movement progression.

Man I'm tired.  Goodnight.
