 G
Hey man, got to take a stand,
         F                     C
so you think that you've been had
G
I'm here to bet you,
street's going to get you,
       F                     C
well two out of three ain't bad
 G
Hey man, it's getting out of hand,
  F                           C
cross your heart and hope to die
D
You got yours, and I got mine,
D#                       F
I'm going to get what's coming to you

Chorus:
               A         D E
Because the street giveth
           A              D E
and the street taketh away
               C               D    A
Where there's no blind justice, no way

Hey man, don't you understand,
you can run but you can't hide
There ain't no life after death,
so save your breath (you're going to)
Be a rock and roll suicide
Hey man, do you need a hand,
but I ain't no blessing in disguise
Feel the agony, and the ecstacy,
it's going to burn right through you

Chorus

Life's too short, so help yourself,
Because I don't walk on water

Chorus

Because the street giveth
and the street taketh away
