Born Under A Bad Sign

Booker T. Jones, William Bell / Cream: Wheels of Fire (1968)

G7 G7
Born under a bad sign - I've been down since I began to crawl
D7 D7 C#7 C7 C7
If it wasn't for bad luck - I wouldn't have no luck at all
 
G7
Bad luck and trouble's my only friend
G7
I've been down ever since I was ten
G7 G7
Born under a bad sign - I've been down since I began to crawl
D7 D7 C#7 C7 C7
If it wasn't for bad luck - I wouldn't have no luck at all
(next verse omitted in Cream version)
G7
I can't read, never learned how to write
G7
My whole life is one big fight
G7 G7
Born under a bad sign - I've been down since I began to crawl
D7 D7 C#7 C7 C7
If it wasn't for bad luck - I wouldn't have no luck at all
 
G7
Oh wine and women is all I crave
G7
A big legged woman's gonna carry me to my grave
G7 G7
Born under a bad sign - I've been down since I began to crawl
D7 D7 C#7 C7 C7
If it wasn't for bad luck - I wouldn't have no luck at all
