Verse 1(Same pattern as above but just A and D chords)

Do you belive I would take such a thing with me, and give
it to a police man? I wouldn't do that, mmhmm, I wouldn't do that
if I did that would you say "sir come down and put the
charge on me?" I wouldn't do that, oohhh, I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself, But I was innocent to what they done to me.
they were wrong, they were wrong

'cuz we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night,
we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night,

hear the club, hear the beat, in the dog pound, DJ, he can
have his grilled cheese
some jealous punk, snuck up around my back, tried to take
a lovin' over me; Lord I got into a fist fight, and wound
up in jail all night

give it to me one time 
give it to me - two times (1, 2)
give it to me three time (1, 2, 3)
give it to me four time (1, 2, 3, 4)

ball and chain


Verse 1

E
people listen up don't stand to close 
                         B
i got something that you all should know, 

all the lies, all the lies they
                                 E
told to me from a little part of history,
 
see i was always taught that boy meets girl
                             B 
fall in love get married and forget the world
                                         A
nine months later sweet babys on the way kiss

'em on the cheek and lifes o.k., 
E            A       E            A
i don't feel no pain i don't have no time
E             A                   B    C
to listen to conflicting points of view.
E                    G        B(14th fret) 
its a crazy world to live alone
E                  G        B(14th fret) 
a ball and chain i call my own. 


      E    G
nanana nana whoo

Verse 2(Basically same as above)

people stand back don't stand top near i've got something that you all
should hear holy matrimonys not for me rather die alone in misery because
marriage doesn't work in the world today it's an institution and it's in
decay and if i have love i wish to protray i will surely find another way
because i was always taught that boy meets girl... i step into the great
unknown a ball and chain i call my own.
