Stand Up To The Man

• A

A 
I hear people talking about the line that I am walking 
       A                               E 
How it won't lead to the palace of the wise 
          E 
There the ones that say they love you, try and stay above you 
        E                                  A 
They'll twist your arm and make you tell a lie 
       A  
But to me its a game of blackjack, go on and take a step back 
A                    A7             D 
Hold your breath and let that money ride 
          E  
Cause the dealer he's got twenty and you'll bust if you take any 
      E                      A 
So it never was for you to decide 

              D  
Just put your chips out on the table 
Bm                     E 
Deal'em when your able to 
    D                        
And if you hit rock bottom,  
Bm 
Smoke'm if ya got'em 
   E 
At least you know you played a hand  
    E                       A 
And you can stand up to the man 
 
 
I don't see the reason for the politics and treason 
We're riding the same rail that will take us home 
And the world is just a boxcar, preachers next to rock stars 
It'll take you anywhere you need to roam 
Ask about the gamblin', interrupt their ramblin' 
Make your way to the back of the train 
Cast your bread out on the water, you good sons and daughters  
You don't need a reason to explain
