Losing Streak(Chords)

	        Intro: G C G C 
 
 G 
That tinpot town went and spat me out  
 C 
Onto that eastern track  
 G 
My Dad he gave me a month or two  
             C 
Before the city spat me back  
   D 
A flat bed truck picked me up  
        C 
And I crossed that great divide  
      D                     
I had 3 good days 'til I spent my pay  
 C                      D 
Now I'm on a downward slide 

 G  C                G   D   
Oh I'm on a losing streak  
  G               C 
Down a paddle I'm up the creek  
 G 
Mercy be  
 D                G    G C G G C G 
I'm on a losing streak
 
 
 
 G 
The city don't place any worth  
       C 
On a small town rouseabout  
       G 
I've never seen so many folks  
         C 
But so few who'll help you out  
        D 
Got a kitchen job to earn a bob  
       C 
Doing nine hours every night  
    D 
I called my Dad about six weeks in  
        C                       D 
And said 'Ya mongrel, you were right!'  
 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
 
Instrumental: Em A Em A C D C D 
 
 
Repeat Chorus  
 
 G 
Mercy be  
 D                G   C G 
I'm on a losing streak 
 
 G 
Mercy be  
 D                   G C G C G C G 
I'm on a losing streak 
 
Lord have mercy (spoken)
