Hey Mr. Businessman
C
Please take me as I am
Am C
I'm ready to go straight

But it's not easy
G
When you don't have no money
Em Am
And if you take a chance
D Em
I know you won't be sorry
G Em
Hard times all around
D G
Hard Station in the town
[Verse]
G C
She came to me this morning
D G
Came to my brother's place
G C
Cards laid out on the table
Am D
Tears streaming down her face
[Chorus]

So Mr. Businessman

Please take me as I am
Am C
I'm ready to go straight
D
But it's not easy
G
When you don't have no money
Em Am
So listen to me please
D Em
I know you won't be sorry
G Em
Hard times all around
D G
Hard Station in the town
[Verse]
G C
Round here you get downhearted
D G
It's more than a man can take
G C
Friends making propositions
Am D
That was my first mistake
[Chorus]
G
So Mr. Businessman
C
Please take me as I am
Am C
I'm ready to go straight
D
But it's not easy
G
When you don't have no money
Em Am
So listen to me please
D Em
I know you won't be sorry
G Em
Hard times all around
D G
Hard Station in the town
