Angry Young Man


Angry Young Man by Steve Earle. From Album Exit 0. I Couldn't find any chords or tabs for this song anywhere so I did it by ear. Here it is. [Intro] C - G - C - G - C - G - D - G G [Verse1]Got a lot of memories tied up in this place C G So much time spent in so little space G What looked like the world through the eyes of a child D Kind of closes in on you after awhile Em G It's a place to grow up and a place to grow old C G You keep your mouth shut and you do what you're told G I told mama the day that I ran D G This ain't no place for an angry young man C G Mama if you could see me right now C G You'd be so sure you failed me somehow Em C Mama you never could understand D G There ain't no peace for an angry young man C - G - D - G G A cheap hotel a long way from my home C G So many people make you feel so alone G Dreams die easy out here in these streets D And hearts grow cold in the city heat Em G I ain't never been the patient kind C G I got to live like I please or die tryin' G At a filling station with a gun in my hand D G The only way for an angry young man C G Mama if you could see me right now C G You'd be so sure you failed me somehow Em C Mama you never could understand D G There ain't no peace for an angry young man C - G - D - G G Got a lot of memories tied up in this place C G Tonight they're starin' me right in the face G A lonely grave on the outskirts of town D It's three in the morning, ain't no one around Em G Just like a ghost I come out of the night C G But I'll be gone before the morning light G Mama I hope that you understand D G This ain't no place for an angry young man C G Mama if you could see me right now C G You'd be so sure you failed me somehow Em C Mama you never could understand D G There ain't no peace for an angry young man C G Mama if you could see me right now C G You'd be so sure you failed me somehow Em C Mama you never could understand D G There ain't no peace for an angry young man C - G - C - G - C - G - D - G C - G - C - G - C - G - D - G G-C-C-G -Tabbed by Joe Chojnacki.
