D            G                  Em 
I gave two teeth in a teenage brawl 
D                  G             Em       D 
For a girl whose name I can't re-call   Then we broke up 
D            G                    Em 
I gave them, me, to the football team 
D              G                      Em     D  
Chasing that high school state champ dream   We almost won 
G               A              Em 
I gave junior college almost a year 
        G                  D                Em               A 
Then I gave a grey hound twenty bucks  And that's how I got here 



[Refrão]
        G       D           G              D 
I give all my money for a slice of daily bread 
         G            D         G            A 
I give forty honest hours to a boss I never met 
        G               D           G            Bm 
And I gave my soul to Jesus at the age of twenty two 
     G                       Bm          G   Em   A   A7  D  
So there ain't much left to offer but I give my heart to you 


D             G                  Em 
I gave up a beard and a head of hair 
D                G                       Em     D 
To a boot camp corporal with a barber's chair  At camp LaJune 
D             G                    Em 
I gave Uncle Sam what he bargained for 
D            G                    Em   D 
Twenty-four months not a minute more   I just didn't fit in 
G                           A              Em 
Then I gave a high school friend of mine a call 
         G          D                  Em           A 
And we gave a body shop a try till we gave up last fall 


Go to chorus, ending
