B I know that it's evil I know that it's got to be No, I ain't doing much Doing nothing means a lot to me A Living on a shoestring E A fifty cent millionaire B Open to charity Rock 'n' roller welfare Sittin' in my Cadillac Listenin' to my radio Suzie, baby, get on in Tell me where she want to go I'm living in a nightmare She's looking like a wet dream I got myself a Cadillac But I can't afford the gasoline Chorus: B I got holes in my shoe A And I'm way overdue B Down payment blues Get myself a steady job Some responsibility Can't even feed my cat On social security Hidin' from the rent man Oh, it make me want to cry Sheriff knockin' on my door Ain't it funny how the time fly? Sittin' on my sailin' boat Sippin' on my champagne Suzie, baby, all at sea Say she want to come again Feelin' like a paper cup Floatin' down the storm drain Got myself a sailin' boat But I can't afford a drop of rain Chorus: I got holes in my shoes And I'm way overdue Down payment blues Down payment blues Down payment blues Down payment blues I got holes in my shoe And I'm way overdue I got the down payment blues You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA E B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
