C#m
Sometimes I don't know where
F#m
this dirty road is taking me
C#m G#7
sometimes I can't even see the reason why
C#m
I guess I keep a-gamblin'
F#m
lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
C#m G#7 C#m
it's easier than just waitin' around to die
C#m F#m
One-time friends I had a ma, I even had a pa
C#m G#7
He beat her with a belt once cause she cried
C#m
She told him to take care of me
F#m
She headed down to Tennessee
C#m G#7 C#m
It's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die
C#m F#m
I came of age and found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
C#m G#7
She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
C#m
I tried to kill the pain
F#m
I bought some wine and hopped a train
C#m G#7 C#m
Seemed easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die
C#m F#m
A friend said he knew where some easy money was
C#m G#7
We robbed a man and brother did we fly
C#m
The posse caught up with me
F#m
Drug me back to Muskogee
C#m G#7 C#m
It's two long years, just a-waitin' 'round to die
C#m F#m
Now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
C#m G#7
He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie
C#m
His name's codeine
F#m
He's the nicest thing I've seen
C#m G#7 C#m
Together we're gonna wait around and die
C#m G#7 C#m
Together we're gonna wait around and die
