[Intro]
| G | C | G C | G*

[Verse 1]
G C D
I came here looking for something
D Dsus4 G
I couldn't find anywhere else
G C D
Hey, I'm not trying to be nobody,
D Dsus4 G
Just want a chance to be myself
G C D
I've done a thousand miles of thumbin',
D Dsus4 G
Yes, I've worn blisters on my heels
G C D
Trying to find me something better
D Dsus4 G
On the streets of Bakersfield

[Chorus]
G C D
You don't know me but you don't like me,
D Dsus4 G
You say you care less how I feel
G C D
How many of you that sit and judge me
D Dsus4 G C G
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield

[Solo]
G C
D7 G

D7 G C G

[Verse 2]
G C D
Spent some time in San Francisco,
D7 Dsus4 G
Spent a night there in the can
G C D
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell,
D Dsus4 G
I took fifteen dollars from that man
G C D
I left him my watch and my old house keys,
D Dsus4 G
I don't like folks thinkin' that I'd steal
G C
Then I thanked him as he was sleepin',
D Dsus4 G
And I headed out for Bakersfield

[Chorus]
G C D
You don't know me but you don't like me,
