Version 1
            [Intro]
A D E A D E A

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

[Chorus]
                                     D       E     
Hey you don't know me, but you don't like me
                            A
You say you care less how I feel
                                 D        E
But how many of you that sit and judge me
                                      A
Have ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

[Instrumental]
A D E A D E A D E A

[Verse 2]
A                         D     E
Spent sometime in San Francisco
                             A
I spent a night there in the can
                                D         E     
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell
                                 A
I took fifteen dollars from that man
                             D         E
Left him my watch and my old house key
                                   A
Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal
                            D       E
Then I thanked him as I was leaving
                           A
And I headed out for Bakersfield

[Chorus]
                                     D       E     
Hey you don't know me, but you don't like me
                            A
You say you care less how I feel
                                 D        E
But how many of you that sit and judge me
                                      A
Have ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
                                     D       E     
Hey you don't know me, but you don't like me
                            A
You say you care less how I feel
                                 D        E
But how many of you that sit and judge me
                                 A
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
                             D        E
How many of you that sit and judge me
                                 A      D  A
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
