Toby Keith — It Works For Me

CAPO 2

Intro: D D9 D (x2)

   D                  D9           D
Never owned a brand new car never worked in a white collar
   Bm
Never held a woman longer than I held one single dollar
   Em
Never went out chasin' rainbows cause there can't be that much to it
   A         Asus4         A
Even if I found my pot of gold I'd probably piss right through it
       D       D9          D         (D A Bm)
I can't remember ever wanting for one second of my life
   Bm                             (Bm A G)
Even if I did it cost too much to ever pay the price
     G                                 (G D/F# Em)
I don't dance out on the dark side ain't no secrets I can tell
 Em                      Asus4         D
So you don't have to say a prayer for me, 
I just said one for myself

Chorus:
         G A     D
I'm livin' my li--fe under my terms
           G     A       Bm
I'm callin' the shots as far as I can see
     G       A          D   D/F#  G
I don't owe nobody nothin' I don't answer to a soul
D/F#     Em        A       D
Might not work for you,   but it works for me

D D9 D (x2)

      D                   D9         D
I've been bent and bruised and broken 
and flat busted once or twice
       Bm
I brought most of it upon myself but I never compromised
  Em
My pride's too hard to swallow so I've chewed a lot of it
   A           Asus4         A
Mild mannered and soft hearted and hard headed as you get
 D          D9           D           (D A Bm)
I live out on the backroads where I walk my country mile
       Bm                          (Bm A G)
And if it's so good in the city why don't anybody smile
   G                                  (G D/F# Em)
The traffic's always heavy and the air ain't fit to breathe
 Em                        Asus4          D
I ain't saying that it's wrong for you it just 
don't make sense to me

REPEAT CHORUS
