Dsus2 = xx0210

Intro: Basically same as the Verse

Verse:

C G D Em
I couldn't bribe a wino, on what I used to make

C G D Dsus2 D
My fortune was as sure as the wind

C G D Em
But I was free to wonder, time was on my hands

C G D Dsus2 D
It was mine to burn and to bend


Chorus:

Em C D Em
Freedom for freedom, call that an even scheme

C G D Dsus2 D
Give me time to wonder and to dream

Em C D Em
I'll take the money, they'll take the time

C G D Dsus2 D
Down to the land of the bottom line

Em
To the bottom line.


Verses

Then there came a chance, to make some steady dough
Bouncing up my alley to the door
You fill your clothes with keys, and dammned responsibilities
Trading the maybe for the sure.

(Chorus)

All I ever wanted, was to be a kid and play
Fighting every change along the way
I don't like work, I don't like waste
And I don't like waiting for a taste.

(Chorus)
