Black Friday rule
Capo 2nd fret
        AmCGAm
Intro:     (2x)
        C G G Am
        Am C G Am
Am             C       G             Am
I want to believe in myself once again
G                                     Am
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
Am                C       G              Am
To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
G                                         Am
I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
Verse
    C                                  G
And for every tear that is lost from an eye
                  E                    Am
I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
  C                                  G
I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
   E
But all I remember is the freedom of old
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

   (2x)
Am                C       G              Am
Well I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
G                           Am
Flew all the way to California
Am                C       G              Am
This mess in my head is a mess getting out
G                                         Am
Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout
Verse
    C                                       G
But after a while, when my mouth's not so dry
                     E                       Am
I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
  C                                  G
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
    E
Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
Am                C          G              Am
The buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
G                                 Am
Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
Am                C                G        Am
I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
G                                         Am
But there ain't no jobs in the old free state
Verse
    C                                  G
So I must remain in my new adopted land
                  E                       Am
I'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I can
  C                                         G
So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
  E
For I am the King and sure long may I reign
Chorus 2x
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Am                      C      G                 Am
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
Am                       G                         Am
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
