I Lived So Fast And Hard(Chords)

	        C               G7            C 
I was raised on cornbread and gravy 

                 G7                   C          G7 
And I slept in a cardboard box till I was nearly three 

C                      G7          C              G7 
I bathed myself in the muddy river running by our shack 

       C               F                    C            G7       C 
By the time that I had reached thirteen I'd been through hell and back 


F                     G7 
I've been thrown from pillar to post 

          F                 C 
I've been banged around and scarred 

                       F 
I've done so much I've seen so much 

         C        G7       C 
And I've lived so fast and hard 


                 G7              C             G7 
Mama died when I was young and I never knew my dad 

C               G7                 C     G7       C 
I never had the love and care that other children had 

                         G7                C             G7 
I spent five years in an orphan's home but I ran off one day 

    C           F                    C       G7    C 
And I hoboed an old freight train to San Francisco Bay 


F                      G7 
I've fought in the war I've been in jail 

F                        C 
There ain't much I ain't done 

                     F 
I'd lived as much as any man 

C            G7     C 
Before I was twenty one 


F                     G7 
I've been thrown from pillar to post 

          F                 C 
I've been banged around and scarred 

                       F 
I've done so much I've seen so much 

         C        G7       C 
And I've lived so fast and hard
