Verse 1
G 
and pills and
Nashville radio,
D 
life will never be the same
Chills and spills from
G 
Maine to
D 
Mexico, riding on my funeral train
G 
In every town there's the same tribulation,
D 
A 
D 
every state I wake up in
G 
D 
The night before was a dim recollection
G 
D 
of powders and bottles and sin
G 
D 
There's a bad little stranger heading out the door,
just about half my age
G 
Blood on the walls, glass on the floor,
D 
A 
D 
I don't think I even made it on stage
I said,
Doctor,
G 
D 
Doctor, sign my description
I'm in trouble again
G 
D 
Ever since I was a tiny little baby,
A 
D 
I couldn't get rid of the pain
G 
D 
I shake my hips but I walk like a cripple
and my body is getting too thin
G 
D 
I can count every one of my bones in the mirror,
A 
D 
poking through my cold white skin
There's a shining star on
G 
the dressing room door
D 
A 
D 
But I'll be out in the back of my car
Cos I don't know a soul I can trust
G 
D 
With the money or to tune
A 
D 
up my guitar
Drinking pills on
G 
D 
Nashville radio
G 
D 
Life will never be the same
Chills and spills from
G 
Maine to
D 
Mexico
A 
G 
D 
Riding on my funeral train
G 
I can't sleep without the
D 
engine humming
And the wheels rolling night and day
G 
Well I can't sleep without the
Nashville radio
D 
A 
D 
Slipping through my chemical haze
G 
Playin' some song that I
D 
don't remember
With the
DJ callin' my name
G 
D 
G 
If they play my songs on the
D 
Nashville radio
G 
A 
G 
D 
Life will never be the same
I said,
Doctor,
G 
D 
Doctor, sign my description I'm
G 
D 
G 
in trouble again
D 
G 
D 
Ever since I was a  tiny little baby I
A 
G 
D 
couldn't get rid of the pain
G 
D 
Ever since I was a tiny little baby I
couldn't get to sleep at night
Been listenin' to that
G 
D 
Nashville radio
A 
D 
Hours before daylight
G 
D 
They threw me off, they cut my throat off
Cos I couldn't behave
G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
I  never knew how many friends I had
D 
A 
D 
Till I was lying in a cold damp grave
G 
I gave my life to country music
D 
I took my pills and lost
Now they don't play my
G 
D 
songs on the radio
A 
D 
G 
D 
G 
D 
G 
It's like I never was

G 
D 
G 
D 
I'm a sweaty cop in an
G 
Alabama lockup
D 
Looked at me and he laughed
He'd heard my songs on the
G 
Nashville
D 
Radio
He asked me for my autograph
G 
D 
G 
He said,
D 
Doctor,
Doctor
G 
D 
Sign my prescription
I'm in trouble again
G 
Ever since I was a tiny little baby
D 
A

I couldn't get rid of the pain
