(G major) (F major) (B flat major) (F major) (B flat major) (F major)
(G major)
Verse 1
Well, he's (F major)
drinking down the bourbon like it was soda pop,
Try (G major) ing to quell a feeling he
knows ain't gonna stop,
He's (F major) mortgaged out his blood for
one (A minor) more chance (Esus4) (G major) to breathe.
He had the (F major) D.T.'s for breakfast,
the shakes till noon,
He (G major) picked up his bag and
left the motel room,
His (F major) head is held high but his (Esus4) heart
(A minor) is (Esus4) on (E minor) it's knees.

Well, he's (F major) gonna write

Verse 6
(G major)
But as the night (F major) approaches,
