Tom: A major•
Verse 1
A
Now the Bible says the poor
D
A
you'll have with you always,
E
A
and the meek shall inherit the earth.
I have reason to believe
D
that these words are true.
A
E
Don't fight them,
A
take them just for what they're worth.
Oh yeah, I know how it feels
E
to have stone brews on both my heels,
To feel the sand between my toes
Maybe have one change of clothes
A
D
But I grew up happy as could be
At our house we all worked hard
We'd come home from school each day
Supper was a sweet affair
And maybe once a week
E
We'd get ice cream for dessert
and that was quite a treat
D
with patches on the knees
A
Bb
a child of poverty
I had a pretty sister
Fm
F
When she wore that thing to school
Bb
it couldn't have fit her better
Had she been the daughter
of Andrew Carnegie
F
Fm
It's a shame that with her
F
measurements and personality
Bb
Eb
That she grew up happy as could be
she was a child of poverty
Bb
Today some people seem to think
F
that being poor's a shame
Back when I was growing up,
pride was their middle name
Bb
So if they live in a shack
with a creek in the back
Eb
And that's the way they want it to be
in their happy home and their poverty
Bb
Yeah, I know how it feels
F
To have stone brews on both of my heels
To feel the sand between my toes
Maybe have one change of clothes
Bb
Eb
But I grew up at the edge, could be
Bb
I was a child of poverty
