Soft Spot

D G D A

(Can also be played C F C G)

[Verse]
D
I remember my Dad pullin' off the road
G
Someone broke down he didn't know
D                                                     A
He got 'em goin' again.. wouldn't let 'em give him a dime
A
He had a soft spot for people on hard times

D
Momma knew the neighbor kids down the street
G
Holes in their clothes and nothing to eat
D                                                   A
She said "I'm gonna feed 'em.. like they're one of mine
                                        D
She had a soft spot for people on hard times

[Chorus]
G
I've been down.. and I've been out
        D
I know all about.. livin' hand to mouth
         A
Could be me or you.. with that cardboard sign
                                          D
Gotta have a soft spot for people on hard times

[Verse]
D
When the wind blows hard and the rain won't stop
G
Good workin' people lose all they got
D                                                 A
We can't treat life bein' broke.. as some kind of crime
                                              D
Need to have a sotf spot.. for people on hard times

[Chorus]
G
I've been down.. and I've been out
        D
I know all about.. livin' hand to mouth
         A
Could be me or you.. with that cardboard sign
                                          D
Gotta have a soft spot for people on hard times
