[Verse 1]
Am G
Well we're all wasted, in a bar
F E7
Somewhere downtown
Am G F E7
When a man walks up and pokes me with a knife And says "Man I'm gonna send you to hell"
Am G F E7
Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes I said, "homeboy, you better fuckin' run,
Am G F E7
I'm sittin' here just a slammin' down beers and, now its time to have some fun" Oh

Am G
Oh well he hit me hard, yeah he hit me good
F E7 Am
And then I fell to the ground, but I kicked him fast
G F E7
I kicked him real swift and he came a tumblin' down
Am G
He took a stab at me and nearly cut my gut, but
F E7
I kicked that knife to the floor
Am G
Then I took his head and slammed it into the bar, I don't
F E7 E7 Am F C E7
Think he'll come around no more Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh
[Chorus]
Am F C E7
Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years, Trying to recap my life
Am F C E7
Every night trouble finds my sight and I cant help but fight
Am F
With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal
C E7 Am F C E7
I'll be stickin' around, until the day a man will put me away and I can rest my soul
[Verse 2]

When a man walks up and pokes me with a knife And says "Man, I'm gonna send you to hell"
Am G F E7
Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes I said, "homeboy this is the day"
Am G F E7 E7
Then I grabbed that knife, stabbed it straight through my eye and Then I fell to my knees Ohhhhh
Am F C E7
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh
[Chorus]
Am F C E7
Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years, Trying to recap my life

Every night trouble finds my sight and I cant help but fight
