Streets of Bakersfield piano leadsheet with chords

Level 5A140 BPMDwight Yoakam & Buck Owens
Getting the sheet readyPip is finding the first note.

I came here looking for something

I couldn't find anywhere else.

Hey, I'm not try'ng to be nobody,

just want a chance to be myself.

I've done a thousand miles of thumbin',

don't I've worn holes in both my heels,

Try'ng to find me as something better

and I headed on the streets of Bakersfield.

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

You say you care less how I feel.

But how many of you that sit and judge me have ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

Spent some time in San Francisco,

I spent a night there in the can.

They threw this drunk man in my jail cell,

took fifteen dollars from that man.

Left him my watch and my old house key,

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

Then I thanked him as I was leaving,

and I headed for the streets of Bakersfield.

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

You say you care less how I feel.

But how many of you that sit and judge me have ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

field? field?

How many of you that sit and judge me have everwalked the streets of Bakersfield?
