[Intro]
B D A B
[Verse]
A B
Well, he's drinking down the bourbon like it was soda pop, trying to quell a
feeling he knows ain't gonna stop
A C#m B
He's mortgaged out his blood for one more chance to breathe
A B
He had the DT 's for breakfast, the shakes till noon, he picked up his bag
and left his motel room
A C#m B A G# F#
His head is held high but his heart is on its knees
[Verse]
A B
Well, he packed his guitar and his bar-room tan, gotta get some miles behind
him as fast as he can
A C#m B
Another destination, someplace else to play
A B
Well, he left a life behind him in some old trailer park, they tried to make
it work was ruined from the start
A C#m B A G# F# A B
He had to shake the rust; it became time to leave
[Bridge]
E B E B
It's a honky-tonk engagement, but there's no better place to play
E B E B
His face feels like crazy pavement, it's getting more lined every day
F#
[Verse]
A B
Well, he's gonna write a letter and try to explain, she says he's too old to
have these growing pains
A C#m B
But something keeps him moving, living on through the night
A B
But as the night approaches, a change is in the air, his heart is pumping
fast, he's got no cares
A C#m B
The music befriends him, it can take him anywhere
[Bridge]
E B E B
It's a honky-tonk engagement, but there's no better place to play
E B E B
His mind feels like crazy pavement, he's getting crazed out every day
