A      Em               A
It is a bad time to be poor,
                      Em              A
'Cause we don't give a shit no more.
                          Em                           A
If you want to go for help, don't look next door.
                    Em                         A    Asus4 A   Em A
The line's been drawn and staked outside.
           Em                 A
I see to trying to lay the blame
                    Em                          A
On the folks in charge who hide in shame
                 Em                  A
For growing up with an open purse,
                  Em                     A    Ab5
And learning not about being alive.
G           Em               Dm      ``   A   Ab5
Haven't I done enough to burn out?
G           Em            Dm                A Asus4 A
Haven't I been there to help out?

Em   A Asus4 A    Em    A  Asus4 A  Em    A  Asus4 A  Em  A
       Em                  A
It is a bad time to be young.
                  Em              A
What's left to us can't be undone
               Em              A
Without it riding on our backs
                      Em                    A
When young and poor go hand in hand.
         Em                A
It is a bad time to be poor
       Em                   A
It's a bad time to be poor.

A  Ab5   Dm    A  Ab5  Dm.....  A  Asus4 A Em...
         Em                    A
It is a bad time to be poor
         Em                    A
It is a bad time to be poor
                   Em              Dm                           A  Asus4  
A.....
And feeling winter through a crack in the door.
