[Intro]
C7 G7
[Verse 1]
G7
Born on the bayou, down in the dumps
G
The dark side of nowhere, taking your lumps
C7
And no education much to speak of
G7
And nothing to live for when push comes to shove
D7 C7
You dial the wrong number and they put you on hold
G7
But somebody loves you or so we've been told
[Verse 2]
G7
There's lead in the water, knees on your neck
G7
The son of your father, born to neglect
C7
You mind your own business, siren gon' wail
G7
Make one false move brother, ya wind up dead or in jail
D7 C7
It's been 400 years now, right down to the day
G7
But somebody loves you, least that's what they say
[Guitar Solo]
G7 C7 G7 D7
G7 C7 G7
[Verse 3]
G7
Buildings may crumble, mountains may fall
G7
Civilization, the cause of it all
C7
Wars and tornadoes, famine and blight
G7
Temperatures rising with no end in sight
D7 C7
There's no need to worry, you've got nothing to fear
G7
'Cause somebody loves you, soon he's gonna be here
[Verse 4]
G7
Somebody loves you, I'm gonna say it again
G7
No matter how hopeless the trouble you're in
C7
They made you a promise, for whatever it's worth
G7
You too shall inherit what's left of the earth
D7 C7
It was long ago written down in so many words
G7
Somebody loves you or haven't you heard?
[Outro-Guitar Solo]
