Adam Brand - Losing Streak

      Adam Brand - Losing Streak



Intro: G  C  G  C

 G
That tinpot town went and spat me out 
 C
Onto that eastern track 
 G
My Dad he gave me a month or two 
             C
Before the city spat me back 
   D
A flat bed truck picked me up 
        C
And I crossed that great divide 
      D                    
I had 3 good days 'til I spent my pay 
 C                      D
Now I'm on a downward slide



Chorus
 G  C                G   D  
Oh I'm on a losing streak 
  G               C
Down a paddle I'm up the creek 
 G
Mercy be 
 D                G    G  C  G  G  C  G
I'm on a losing streak


 G
The city don't place any worth 
       C
On a small town roustabout 
       G
I've never seen so many folks 
         C
But so few who'll help you out 
        D
Got a kitchen job to earn a bob 
       C
Doing nine hours every night 
    D
I called my Dad about six weeks in 
        C                       D
And said "Ya mongrel, you were right!" 


Chorus
 G  C                G   D  
Oh I'm on a losing streak 
  G               C
Down a paddle I'm up the creek 
 G
Mercy be 
 D                G    G  C  G  G  C  G
I'm on a losing streak
