[Chorus 1]
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They're sellin' truth on the corner now
AmE
Look at him all dressed in white
FE
Said the angels musta came into town last night
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They got your fix on the corner downtown
AmE
Look at him with the heavy hearts,
FE
broke down at the bottom, not knowin' where to start singin'
[Verse 1]
AmAm/C
it's all there, in black and white
EG
you can lay down or you can put up a fight
AmAm/C
or you can, break bread with the beggars and thieves
EG
or you can, highhorse your way to your knees
AmAm/C
or you can take that lesson that you learned today,
EG
share it around or throw it away
AmAm/C
but in the end you're gonna see, you're the only one
E N.C.
and this life's just a game, until the game stops bein' fun
[Chorus 2]
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They're sellin' truth on the corner now
AmE
Look at him all dressed in white
FE
Said the angels musta came into town last night
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They got your fix on the corner downtown
AmE
Look at him with the heavy hearts,
FE
broke down at the bottom, not knowin' where to start
[Verse 2]
AmAm/C
Well he's a, broke down, he's a bad seed
EG
He's a, coked out, down on his knees
AmAm/C
He took a, wrong turn, down a wrong street
EG
And he, he got burned by his family
AmAm/C
He says "I'm givin' up", he says "I'm givin' in"
EG
Got the preacher man preachin' 'bout livin' in sin
AmAm/C
He's got God and the Devil, fightin' for his soul,
E N.C.
bought for a price and now he's sellin' it all singin'
[Pre-Chorus]
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE

AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
singin'

Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They're sellin' truth on the corner now

Look at him all dressed in white
FE
Said the angels musta came into town last night
AmE
Hey man, c'mon down
FE
They got your fix on the corner downtown
AmE
Look at him with the heavy hearts,
FE
broke down at the bottom, not knowin' where to start singin'
