[Intro]
| Dm7 | - |
[Verse 1]
F Dm7 F
Well the life we've been given and the way we've been
livin'
A7 C6 Dm7
That's the song that we write 'til we die
F
Now some people write songs on livin' just right
A7 C6 Dm7
But I write mine on just getting by
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I'll go on a whim,
start writing the hymn
Dm7
That sounds so sweet
F
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Dm7
Knock me back off my feet
Bb
I gotta get sober
[Chorus]
F
I gotta start livin' right
C6
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
Dm7
So pour 'em down strong
F
'Til I drown
C6
And if I wake up tomorrow
When that sun comes back around
Dm7
I'll be wishing I was sober
[Verse 2]
F Dm7 F Dm7
Well the liquor and the bowl,
F
they'vе been saving my soul
A7 C6 Dm7
From the pain that the world's put on me
Lord,
F
I know that upstairs thеre's an old man who cares
A7 C6 Dm7
And one day he'll set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
F
I'll go on a whim,
start writing the hymn
Dm7
That sounds so sweet
F
But the troubles and the sin of the world that we're in
Dm7
Knock me back off my feet
Bb
I gotta get sober
[Chorus]
F
I gotta start livin' right
C6
I don't know how it's gonna go
But it ain't gonna happen tonight
Dm7
So pour 'em down strong
F
'Til I drown
A7
And if I wake up tomorrow
C
When that sun comes back around
Dm7
I'll be wishing I was sober
[Outro]
F A7
C6 Dm7 F
Well the life we've been given and the way we've been
livin'
