[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am D Am
Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back
D C Am
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
D Am
Got the number 13 tattooed on my neck
D C Am
When the ink starts to itch, then the black will turn to red
[Chorus]
D Am
I was born in the soul of misery
D Am
Never had me a name
D C B G Am
They just gave me the number when I was young
[Verse 2]
Am D Am
Got a long line of heartache, I carry it well
D C Am
The list of lives I've broken reach from here to hell
Am D Am
Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back
D C Am
I pray you don't look at me, I pray I don't look back
[Chorus]
D Am
I was born in the soul of misery
D Am
Never had me a name
D C B G Am
They just gave me the number when I was young
D Am
I was born in the soul of misery
D Am
Never had me a name
D C B G Am
They just gave me the number when I was young
D C B G Am
They just gave me the number when I was young

Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
Got the number 13 tattooed on my neck
When the ink starts to itch
Then the black will turn to red
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
Gonna find me a preacherman confessin' all I've done
Or you can catch me with the devil playing 21
Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back
I pray you don't look at me
I pray I don't look back
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
Got a long line of hearthache
I carry it well
The list of lives I've broken
Reach from here to hell
Bad luck wind been blowin' at my back
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
I was born in the soul of misery
Never had me a name
They just gave me the number when I was young
They just gave me the number when I was young

For those saying that the B is wrong try playing the note ( A string 2nd fret) instead of the chord. Excellent tab!

i think the D and G is minus, but anyway, good tab =D
