[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
Well I'm swimmin in debt and the money's all gone
I ain't got nothin I can call my own
Work my fingers to the blood and bone
For a big dissapointment when my paycheck comes
C
If I only had a little I could do just fine
G
I could put a down payment on a piece of mine
D
But I'm hangin on the end of a credit line
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time
G
My trucks financed through the union bank
But I don't have enough to even fill the tank
I'd take ya for a ride girl but I just can't
Cause the damn old motor won't even crank
C
Our trailers plenty big if we live down size
G
But I can't swing the payments on a double wide
D
Ya better hold a place in that welfare line
G
Cause I'm just livin on borrowed time
[Chorus]
C
If it comes in cheap but it don't come free
G
Then it stays off limits to a guy like me
C
They say it brings trouble havin money to burn
A7 D
I reckon that's a lesson I won't have to learn
[Verse]
G
Yeah I bought my wife a little diamond ring
Her mom said hun can't even see that thing
It'll be paid of when I'm sixty five
If I'm lucky enough to even be alive
C
Even if I was to pass away
G
My family doesn't have enough to dig my grave
D
No tombstone just on old wood sign
G
Sayin he was just livin on borrowed time
D
Out there swingin from a credit line
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time
