D I can hound you, if I need too. Sip your brandy from a crystal shoe in the G F D corner. In the corner. Em Bm While the others climb, reaching dizzy heights, the G A# C world's in front of me in black and white. D F I'm on the bottom line, I'm on D F the bottom line. I'd have a cardiac if I had such luck Ooh! Lucky losers, lucky losers landing on skid row Landing on skid row While the Diamond Jims and the Kings road pimps Breath heavy in their brand new clothes I'm on the bottom line I'm on the bottom line Chorus: Gm Dm A# C F And I gotta get a meal ticket. To survive you need a meal ticket, to stay Am Dm Gm F alive you need a meal ticket. Feel no pain, no pain. No regret, no regret. C A# Gm When the line's been signed, you're someone else. Do yourself a favor, the Am Dm meal ticket does the rest. Shake a hand if you have to Trust in us and we will love you anyway, anyway Don't leave us stranded in the jungle With fifty percent that's hard to handle Ain't that so? Ain't that so?
