INTRO: G
[G]I don't have a girl to bail me out tonight
[C]I don't have the means to help myse[G]lf
And [C]I don't have a [C/E]friend to get me [G]tight tonight
It [Am7]seems like nothin's right when nothin's [D]left
I [Cmaj7]bit the hand that fed and I [G]made the knife that bled me...
But I used to be a [Em]lion[G]
I used to be a [Am]lion[G]
[G]I don't have the pride to hold my head up high
And [C]I don't have the strength to make the [G]kill
[C]These days I don't [C/E]run free, I'm just [G]passin' by
[Am7]Wakin' up at all's my only [D]thrill
I [Cmaj7]lost the ones that love me, now [G]everyone's above me...
But I used to be a l[Em]ion[G]
I used to be a [Am]lion[G]
[C]Ooooh [G]ooooh
[C]Ooooh [Em]ooooh
[C]Ooooh [G]ooooh
[Am7]Ooooh [D]ooooh
I [Cmaj7]bit the hand that fed me, and I [G]made the knife that bled me...
But I used to be a [Em]lion[G]
I used to be a [Am]lion[G]
I [Cmaj7]lost the ones that love me, now [G]everyone's above me...
But I used to a [Em]lion[G]
N/C
I used to be a lion
