Lyrics

[Intro]
| Am | - |

[Verse 1]
Am
I light every bridge I see, yeah,
just to watch it burn
If you'd seen all the hell I've seen,
it'd make your stomach turn
           F
I think you know
      G                  Am
Why I do what I do when I  do, mm

[Verse 2]
Am
I could tell some stories 'bout some things you won't
believe
It takes more than an altar now to set this sinner free
           F
I think you know
      G                      Am
How I try when I try, Lord, I  try

[Chorus]
                   F
I might drink a little,
                   G
I might smoke a lot
                      D
Countin' down the good times,
                      C
starin' down the clock
                  F                             G
Throw some hallelujahs to the big man in the sky
                   D
Show up Sunday morning,
                       C
lookin' just like last night
                       Am
Yeah, that's how I get by

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, that's how I get by

[Verse 3]
Am
Thousand miles of gravel,
I've been walkin' with no shoes
No matter how far I come,
I can't outrun my roots
           F
I think you know
      G                  Am
Why I do what I do when I  do

[Chorus]
                   F
I might drink a little,
                   G
I might smoke a lot
                      D
Countin' down the good times,
                      C
starin' down the clock
                  F                             G
Throw some hallelujahs to the big man in the sky
                   D
Show up Sunday morning,
                       C
lookin' just like last night
                       Am
Yeah, that's how I get by

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, that's how I get by

[Interlude]
Am
I might drink a little
That's how I get by
Countin' down the good times
That's how I get by
Throw some hallelujahs
That's how I get by
Show up Sunday morning smellin' just like last night,
ah

[Chorus]
                   F
I might drink a little,
                   G
I might smoke a lot
                      D
Countin' down the good times,
                      C
starin' down the clock
                  F                             G
Throw some hallelujahs to the big man in the sky
                   D
Show up Sunday morning,
                       C
lookin' just like last night
                       Am
Yeah, that's how I get by

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, that's how I get by
Lord, that's how I get by
