Tough Guy Blues Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

CI came hungry

Came to make me some money

Got my blues from the karate kid

And my roots from Bugs Bunny

F♯m A E x2

CWell I burned out and got older

My spirit smoldered

Stuffed a sock in my pants

And tossed a chip on my shoulder

F♯m A E x2

CWell I gave up thinking

And I took up drinking

To emanicipate my mind like

Abraham Lincoln

F♯m A E x2

CThen I robbed and I ripped

Wagging my lips

Singing bibbidibobbidibibbidibib

F♯m A E x2

Chorus 1

AI got drunk and I smoked a lot of cigaF♯mrettes

AI got a hangover but I never got rid of F♯mit

 MyD heart got broke and my brain goBmt bruised

F♯mI still don't know Ea thing about the tough gF♯muy blues

Verse 2

CThere was this little flirt

Popping out of her shirt

Smiling and laughing

Hanging on to each word

CSo innocent and sweet

Rockin' to the beat

I tapped that keg

Like she tapped her little feet

Chorus 2

AA girl half my age in love with F♯mme

AI got busted at age thirty F♯mthree

 MyD heart got broke and my brain goBmt bruised

 But I F♯mstill don't knowE a thing about the tough guF♯my blues

Bridge

BmSo high so fast that's when I F♯mcrashed

BmDown in the gutter tossed out of myC♯7 ass

Verse 3

CLike a cartoon Saturday morning

I wave by still hovering

And splat on the ground

Know the true meaning of suffering

F♯m A E x2

CI got a reason for the anger

Like a blind blues singer

I gouge out my eyes

And let a stray dog lick my finger

F♯m A E x2

Chorus 3

AI get sad sometimes act suiF♯mcidal

AI look like Jesus but I've never read the F♯mBible

DMy heart got broke and my brain got bBmruised

 But I F♯mstill don't know Ea thing about the tough guF♯my blues
