Chorus:
Am Dm
Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
Em Dm
Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
Am G C F
Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
C
But I can't seem to catch a dime
Em G
Take a little hit and I lose the time


Verse 1:
Am Dm
I took the man and his horse
And ran before he looked up
Am Dm
I said the light's gonna change
But I'm calm and feeling warm
Am Dm Am G
And now I'm sticking out my hands
F
And feeling weightless again
Am Dm
You got to push, got to shove
I've got to eat before they eat me
Am Dm
Got the crown and the cup
I've got to write to my family
Am Dm
And say, "I'm calm and feeling warm."
Am G Em F
I'm not quite there, but I'm close
G
And it's a world of a difference


Chorus


Verse 2:
Am Dm
I've got the worst all behind me
Yeah they'll never be able to find me
Am Dm
I'm the king of the city
I'm a roach and they're all primates
Am Dm Am G
This is meal time, real life
F
I'm not gonna fight
No, I'm gonna start a war
Am Dm
I've been right, I've been wrong
My smokes have come and gone
Am Dm
I've been crazy
Been fed enough to not wind up dead
Am Dm
And I'm lonely
Am G Em F
My eyes have been closed to the world
G
'Cause the world's got nothing for me


Chorus (x2)

Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling

Yet again I'm hustling, hustling, hustling
