Intro 1
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
Verse 1
Well, I remember (A minor) what you told (G6) me
Said drinkin' (F major) was unholy
So Lord, (A minor) can you point (G6) me to the creek? (F major)
And I (A minor) still keep it with (G6) me
Tucked under (F major) all the memories
Your voice (A minor) echoin' (G6) throughout those (F major) trees

Interlude 1
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
Verse 2
And through (A minor) unfavored weather (G6)
And holes (F major) in the leather
These boots (A minor) still (G6) covered in tar (F major)
Well, I'm still (A minor) prayin' to the Heavens (G6)
And hopin' (F major) for them sevens
But hope (A minor) only (G6) gets a man so (F major) far
Chorus 1
When (A minor) this game of life (G6)
plays (F major) heavy on my heart
And (A minor) love is (G6) tough,
but loneliness (F major) is twice as hard
And (A minor) I'll carry (G6) that 'bout (F major) everywhere I go
And they say (A minor) pressure makes (G6) diamonds
How the hell (F major) am I still coal?
Interlude 2
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
(A minor) (G6) (F major)
Verse 3
Now I've seen (A minor) Heaven without dyin' (G6)
Met the Devil (F major) without tryin'
And they both (A minor) seem to (G6) wanna talk to me (F major)
But I'm (A minor) all out of luck (G6) now
And my dreams (F major) aren't worth a buck
How it's (A minor) tough tryin' to (G6) land on my (F major) feet
Chorus 2
When (A minor) this game of life (G6)
plays (F major) heavy on my heart
And (A minor) love is (G6) tough,
but loneliness (F major) is twice as hard
And (A minor) I'll carry (G6) that 'bout everywhere (F major) I go
And they say (A minor) pressure makes (G6) diamonds
How the hell (F major) am I still coal? (F major)
Bridge 1
When every day (A minor) is gettin' colder (G6)
Since that (F major) day in October
When you told (A minor) me it was over, (G6) so I left (F major)
'Cause if you need (A minor) me, well, I told (G6) ya
I'm on the better (F major) side of sober
Tryin' to find (A minor) a four-leaf clover (G6)
To get me out (F major) of this mess
Chorus 3
(A minor) This game of life (G6)
plays (F major) heavy on my heart
And (A minor) love is (G6) tough,
but loneliness (F major) is twice as hard
And (A minor) I'll carry (G6) that 'bout everywhere (F major) I go
And they say (A minor) pressure makes (G6) diamonds
How the hell (F major)
Chorus 4
(A minor) This game of life (G6)
plays (F major) heavy on my heart
And (A minor) love is (G6) tough,
but loneliness (F major) is twice as hard
And (A minor) I'll carry (G6) that 'bout everywhere (F major) I go
And they say (A minor) pressure makes (G major) diamonds
How the hell (F major) am I still coal?
