Here is a great Robert Earl Keen Jr. song off his A Bigger Piece of Sky album
Corpus Christi Bay
by Robert Earl Keen Jr.
Capo on 3rd fret
[Verse 1]
G C G
I worked the rigs from three 'til midnight
G C
On the Corpus Christi Bay
C G
I'd get off and drink 'til daylight
G D
Sleep the mornin' away
D C G
I had a plan to take my wages
G C
Leave the rigs behind for good
C G D
But that life it is contagious
D G
And it gets down in your blood
[Verse 2]
G C G
I lived in Corpus with my brother
G C
We were always on the run
C G
We were bad for one another
G D
But we were good at having fun
D C G
We got stoned along the seawall
G C
We got drunk and rolled a car
C G D
We knew the girls at every dancehall
D G
Had a tab at every bar
[Chorus]
G D C
If I could live my life all over
C G
It wouldn't matter anyway
G C D
'Cause I never could stay sober
D G
On the Corpus Christi Bay
[Verse 3]
G C G
My brother had a wife and family
