 But three months later he said he won't date her or return her call

 And then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the doors

Bridge :
Dm                                              FMaj7   -                  C     -
 I've seen a rich man beg, I've seen a good man sin, I've seen a tough man cry
Dm                                    FMaj7   -                    C     -
 I've seen a loser win, and a sad man grin, I heard an honest man lie
Dm                                                    FMaj7   -          C     -
 I've seen the good side of bad, and the down side of up, and everything between
Dm                                                FMaj7   -              C     -
 I licked the silver spoon, drank from the golden cup, smoked the finest green
Dm                                               FMaj7   -             C     -
I stroked the baddest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their heart
Dm                                       FMaj7   -           C     -
 You know where it ends Yo, it usually depends on where you start

 I knew this kid named Max he used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
Dm                    Fmaj7                           C                        Dm*
 He liked to hang out late at night liked to get shit faced and keep pace with thugs
Dm              Fmaj7                     C                  Dm*
 Until late one night there was a big gun fight Max lost his head
Dm                 Fmaj7              C                   Dm*
 He pulled out his chrome forty five talked some shit and wound up dead
Dm                    Fmaj7                  C                   Dm*
 Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of his pain
Dm                         Fmaj7                    C                           Dm*
 You know it crumbles that way at least that's what they say when you play the game

 
Chorus :
Dm      Fmaj7               C                   Dm*
 God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
Dm                      Fmaj7                C               Dm*
 'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to lose
Dm               Fmaj7                 C          Dm*
 Then you really might know what it's like [x3]

To have to lose...
