You think you got problems

You don’t know the half of it

I hear you talk about your millions

And your politics 
C 
You wanna cross the poverty line 
G                                   C 
And then you wanna come have a look around 
G                             D

On the East side of town

But you don’t know what you’re talkin’ about 
G 
When you find yourself in my neighborhood 
G                         D 
You can’t wait to get the hell out 
C 
You wanna see what it means to suffer

Verse 
G 
You think your dogs are really mean 
G                  D 
But you ain’t seen nothin’ yet 
G 
I’ll show you things you've never seen 
G       D 
And you won’t forget 
C 
You wanna see how the other half lives 
G                         C 
You wanna see how we get around

Why don’t you come visit 
            G 
On the East side of town 


Verse 
G 
You got your ideals and your visions 
G       D 
And you say you sympathize 
G 
You look but you don’t listen 
G            D 
There’s no empathy in your eyes 
C 
You make deals and promises 
G                  C 
And everybody bows down 
    G                           D 
And now you wanna come shake my hand in  
            G 
On the East side of town
