None of them
G
I was born and raised in the ghetto
Talk with me and you'll know
C G
I wasn't satisfied with living on the side
C
I started looking around for a possibility
G D G
But listen to my story, of what became of me
G
I met a businessman
Who said he got some friends back East
C
Said, "Why don't you come along?
G
Well we could help you atleast"
"Make you into a big star
C
By playing your guitar"
G
But the joke was on me
D G G7
They left me flat to see
D
Going back West (Going back West)
C G
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
D
Going back West (Going back West)
C G
Where my music's playing all night
C D
Going back West (Going back West)
G
Think I'll do alright
G
Struggling for recognition, identity and respect
C G
I got a lot of promises, they told me not to fret
Said, "We will stand by you
C
If the going gets rough"
G
But when I started sinking
D G G7
They didn't even bluff
D
Going back West (Going back West)
C G
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
D
Going back West (Going back West)
C G
Where my music's playing all night
C D
Going back West (Going back West)
G
Think I'll do alright

G#
'Bout a year has come and gone
And left me standing here
C#
Thinking how it could have been

'Cause still I ain't nowhere
They surely took me for a ride
C#
Trampled on my pride
G#
But I'll hold my head up high
D# G# G#7
Got no more tears to cry
D#
Going back West (Going back West)
C# G#
Yes I know, I'll make out alright
D#
Going back West (Going back West)
C# G#
Where my music's playing all night
C# D#
Going back West (Going back West)
G#
Think I'll do alright
