Underdog

(Sly and the Family Stone)


Verse: C#m E A C#m

Chorus: C#m Ebm E A B Ab

hey

I know how it feels
to expect to get a fair shake
but they won't let you forget
that you're the underdog
and you got to be twice as good
(yeah yeah)

even if you're never right
they get uptight
if you get too bright
'cause you might be thinking too much yeah
(yeah yeah)

I know how it feels
when you know for real
that every other time
you get a
raw deal
yeah (yeah yeah)

I'm the under (underdog) x2
I don't mind
'cause I'm the underdog (underdog)
said say I'm the underdog (underdog)
hey
(oh oh)

I know how it feels
to get demoted
when it comes the time
to get promoted
'cause you might be moving up too fast
(yeah yeah)

if you ever love somebody
of a different set
let me set wouldn't let you forget
that it just don't go like that
(yeah yeah)

I know how it feels
people to stop and turn around and stare
say goodbye a little bit
and low rate me yeah
(yeah yeah)

I don't mind
(underdog)
(underdog)
I'm the under (underdog)
hey hey yeah
I'm the under (underdog)
(oh oh)

I know how it feels
to be played upon alone
to be at the a party
but you're really
all alone
yeah
(yeah yeah)

I know how it feels
when you're feeling down bad
and you want to come up
but you realize
you're we're in the wrong part of town
yeah
(yeah yeah)

I know how it feels
that when you go you're going along with people you don't even know
simply because there's they have must to be a whole lot more of them yeah
(yeah yeah)

I'm the under (underdog) x2
but I don't mind
'cause I got never (underdog)
it's going to be all right
I'm the under (underdog)
hey
(oh oh)
