              Intro: Dm , Dm , C , G/B , Bb , Dm 
 
              Dm 
Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family  
       C 
But I almost lost the house  
Yeah, I bought into the dream 
        G     
We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way to deep 
            Bb  
We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets (Dm)  
         Dm 
She's a workin' single mom, like a Saint she doesn't complain 
     C 
She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame 
     G  
Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away  
             Bb 
She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way  
    Dm                                   C 
Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on  
                              G/B 
Seems like all the good shits gone 
                                   Bb 
It keeps on getting harder hanging on  
    Dm                                       C 
Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream  
                                   G/B 
These days you've even harder to believe  
                         Bb          Gm 
I know how busy you must be, but Hey God... 
                   Dm       (Dm) 
Do you ever think about me  
 Dm                                   C 
Born into the ghetto in 1991, just a happy child  
Playing beneath the summer sun  
    G 
A vacant lots' his playground, by 12 he's got a gun  
                              Bb     
The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21  
    Dm                                   C 
Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on  
                              G/B 
Seems like all the good shits gone  
                                   Bb 
It keeps on getting harder hangin' on 
    Dm                                      C 
Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream  
                                   G/B 
These days you've even harder to believe  
                         Bb          Gm 
I know how busy you must be, but Hey God...

Do you ever think about me 
 
solo : Dm  C  G/B  (Bb)  Dm 
 
    Dm 
I'd get down on my knees  
I'm going to try this thing you way  
        G/B                            Bb 
Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave  
Dm 
Was he too gone to save?  
         C 
Did you even know his name?  
    G/B                     Bb 
Are you the one to blame, I got something to say

Do you ever think about me
