[A]
[Bm] [A] Eight miles out of Galesburg I'm staring at the rain
Eight ball left of [E] the cheap [A] cocaine And I'm looking at the sunlight
Light through the pines I couldn't tell you what it is
It's always been mine Now that I'm gone I think of the man
With a meth pipe clutched And his bones in the hand
Said, hey brother I hope you get straight I bet I don't meet him at the pearly gates
I'll sing Hey mama I've [C#m] been staring at the rain
[D] A little heartbreak, [E] a little [A] soul pain I've been up all night on [C#m] the cheap cocaine
[D] Trying to make it better [E] but it's always [A] the same
[B] [A]
[B] [A] Well I made a few new friends in a Rockford bar
Told them all the lines [E] I said I [A] was in charge
Of the after party where the women were loose
I partied with the metalheads with gin and juice
Hungover as hell I slept in shit on the lawn
I'm tired of twenty-somethings [E] and their punk [A] rock songs
Wake up in the morning and stumble towards the dawn
Saying, how you doing boy?
It's been too long
I sing Hey mama I've [C#m] been staring at the rain
[D] A little heartbreak, [E] a little [A] soul pain I've been up all night [C#m] on the cheap cocaine
[D] Trying to make it better [E] but it's always [A] the same
On
[B] [A] the streets of Chicago with sidekick Sally
I was hitting up the bars [E] on [A] Viagra Alley
Where the men pick up women not half their age
All I had for them was my tears and my rage
And I thought it was a fight so I went for my knife
And the man shook my hand [E] with his kids [A] and his wife
And I was so ashamed I hung back and cried
Leave all that to St.
Peter's, wait till I die
I sing Hey mama [C#m] I've been staring at the [D] rain
A little [E] heartbreak, a little [A] soul pain I've been up all night [C#m] on the cheap cocaine
