(G major) (E minor)
Verse 1
(G major) I could shed my

my head down on the track,
And (E minor) die, die, die.
My (C major) life's been so sweet
I just can (G major) 't stand it.
I must (B minor) admit (B major) I've made
out like a ban (D major) dit.

Verse 2
Last (G major) night's conversation with
a real good friend of mine,
Drinkin' wine, (E minor) wine, wine.
Said fifty (G major) years of livin' and your
worst mistakes forgiven,
Just take time, (E minor) time, time.
One (C major) man's lust for life brings
world (G major) reknown,
And the next (B minor) guy can't get
two feet off the ground. (D major)
He's (G major) Earth (E minor) bound.

think I might stick around. (D major)

Verse 4
(G major) I knew love once way back when--she

And long (E minor) black hair.
She was (G major) Irish-Spanish mix-breed,
I I I was southeast Texas hayseed,
We were almost (E minor) there.
Her (B minor) daddy (C major) did not like my kind around. (G major)
The (B minor) true love took the next
train out of town. (D major)
Earth (B minor) bound.
Verse 5
(G major) Earthbound; (E minor) where there's fathers and
daughters in pain. (G major)

Verse 6
With each (G major) new day that passes
I'm in need of thicker glasses,
But it's all (E minor) okay.
Some (G major) day I'll be leavin',
but I just can't help believin'
That it's not (E minor) today. (C major) (hey)
Every golden moment I have found (G major) I've done (B minor) my
best to run right in the ground. (D major)

(G major) Earthbound; (E minor) see the sky
big and beautiful blue. (D major)

calling for you. (D major) (E minor)

think I might stick around. (D major) (E minor)
