Вступление
ALWAYS BARELY GETTING BY
As recorded by Clayton Smalley
(2023 release)
[Intro]
B A E
[Verse 1]
E
My bank accounts no indication of the work I′m putting in
E
Most times I'm at the job site before 4 am
A
I punch the clock
A
I do my time
A
Yeah sometimes I complain
E
But bitching about this way of life won′t get the mortgage paid
B
It's enough to make you want to lose your mind
E
Seems like I'm always barely getting by
[Chorus]
A E
I work my fingers to the bone
A B
Just to pay the interest on a loan
A
I can′t get ahead
E A
No matter how I try
B A E
Seems like I′m always barely getting by
[Verse 2]
E
Looking at my paystub wondering where the money went
E
What ain't already spoken for goes to the government
A
What′s the point
A
In Medicare and
A
Social Security
E
If I work myself into the ground it's no benefit to me
B
Right now I can′t even afford to die
E
Seems like I'm always barely getting by
[Chorus]
A E
I work my fingers to the bone
A B
Just to pay the interest on a loan
A
I can′t get ahead
E A
No matter how I try
B A E
Seems like I′m always barely getting by
[Guitar Solo]
A E A B
[Verse 3]
E
My little fixer upper ain't no mansion on a hill
E
I′ll never be a rich man worth enough to write a will
A
Everywhere I look
A
There′s people
A
Live in just like me
E
The backbone of this country in the land of the free
B
It makes me scratch my head and wonder why
E
Seems like we're always barely getting by
[Chorus]
A E
I work my fingers to the bone
A B
Just to pay the interest on a loan
A
I can′t get ahead
E A
No matter how I try
B A E
Seems like I′m always barely getting by
[Outro]
A
No I can′t get ahead
E A
No matter how I try
B A E
Seems like I'm always barely getting by
E
Barely getting by
