INTRO

D

I came here looking for something,

E A

I couldn't find anywhere else.

D

Hey, I'm not trying to be nobody,

E A

Just want a chance to be myself.

D

I've spent a thousand miles of thumbin',

E A

Yes I've worn blisters on my heels.

D

Tryin' to find me something better,

E A D E A

Here on the streets of Bakersfield.

D

Hey, you don't know me but you don't like me.

E A

Say you care less how I feel.

D

But how many of you that sit and judge me,

E A (D E A 1st time only)

Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

D E A D E A D E A

INSTRUMENTAL

D

Spent some time in San Francisco,

E A

I spent a night there in the can.

D

They threw this drunk man in my jail cell,

E A

I took fifteen dollars from that man.

D

Left him my watch and my old house keys,

E A

Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal.

D

Then I thanked him as I was leaving,

E A D E A

And I headed out for Bakersfield.

*REPEAT CHORUS* (x2)

A D

How many of you that sit and judge me,

E A D E A

Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
