[Verse 1]
A E
Me and a big Dave were just trying to stay upright
A
We were chasing white lines and warping our minds last night
We were killing the time though we sure didn't know it
D
Hunting down rhymes with a Kentucky poet
E A
Me and big Dave were just trying to stay alive
[Verse 2]
A
There's some folks around town
E
That might cuss our names down to the floor
They might claim that were loners
A
No account stoners and more
It's the same kind of people claim to be chosen
D
Their ears made of stone and their tongues made of poison
E A
The doctrine they preach has got nothing that they can teach me
[Solo]
(Not super acccurate, but close enough)

[Verse 3]
A E
Well I don't know if Dave hates the same kind of hate that I do
A
He knows that I know that he's been cut down by it too
Well people get talking 'bout things that we uses
D
I ain't in the business of making excuses
E A
Me and big Dave were just trying to stay alive
This whole world's full of ghosts
E
That I believe that most folks can't see
A
The particular demons that reason with big Dave and me

Don't cross him, don't boss him, he's wild in his sorrow, he's ridin' and hidin' his pain

Don't fight him, don't spite him, let's wait till tomorrow maybe he'll ride on again
