The Poor - Jesse Welles | Guitar Chords | VChords

[Intro]
---------------------
Cm | G# 
Cm G#                      Cm
    If you worked a little harder

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
                      G#
Then you'd have a lot more
            Cm
So the blame  and the shame's on you
    G#
For being so damn poor
             Cm
It ain't the price gouging
                   G#
And it ain't the inflation
         Cm
It ain't everyone above ya tryna make a buck from ya
         G#
And screwin' the whole congregation
             Cm
I had that reduced lunch

[Verse 1]
---------------------
                  G#
I had the benefit cards
           Cm
It never occurred to me to blame my family
        G#
For life being so damn hard
                   Cm
I should've paid attention
                   G#
Back when I was in school
             Cm
Then I could figure up the tax
I would know a lot of facts
              G#
I missed thе class where they taught thе rules
                 Cm
I was memorizing capitols

[Verse 2]
---------------------
                     G#
I was in the spelling bee
          Cm
I must've missed the part
Where they taught the art
  G#
Of private equity
                   Cm
I was selling chocolate bars
             G#
I had a disorder
      Cm
I was cuttin' up a frog
Got lost in the fog
     G#
Learnin' how to play a recorder
                     Cm
If you only worked a little harder

[Bridge]
---------------------
G# Cm G#                      D#           G#
      If you worked a little harder, ah ah
                       D#            G#
If you worked a little harder, ah, ah ah
                       Cm
If you worked a little harder

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                      G#
Then you'd have a lot more
            Cm
So the blame  and the shame's on you
    G#
For being so damn poor
             Cm
It ain't the banks
                    G#
And it ain't the taxes
             Cm
It ain't the pay day loans and the high rent homes
    G#
And predatory fees and practices
              Cm
Wave your dumb  flag

[Verse 3]
---------------------
            G#
Whatever it means
               Cm
But you should ask yourself
When it comes to health
            G#
Are the poor really all that free?
                       Cm
If you worked a little harder

[Solo]
---------------------
G# Cm G#                      D#           G#
      If you worked a little harder, ah ah
                       D#            G#
If you worked a little harder, ah, ah ah
                       Cm
If you worked a little harder

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
                      G#
Then you'd have a lot more
            Cm
So the blame  and the shame's on you
    G#
For being so damn poor, yeah
