      A 
I was born in the middle of nowhere 

Found me in a sack 

I never knew no love or affection 
                                D 
So I never let it held me back 

A 
Now the time has moved along 

And I'm wiser as I'm older 

Well balanced? That I am 
                                        C 
I've got a chip on each of my shoulders 
C#5      D 
I'm on a mission to spread the word 
                            E5 F#5 G5 G#5 A 
Of the meaning of the blues 
                                 E 
So watch out now, here's Johnny! 


  G             A     
Believe I'm bad news 
            E F F# G 
Oh yes I am 
            A 
Oh yes I am
