[D] [C] [Em]
[D] [C] [Am] We'll take the copper from the [Em] worksite, meet me there at [D] midnight.
They ain't got a [G] camera or a guard.
Write my own [Em] prescription if I can't get a [D] fix on shit's about to [C] get real hard.
Molly don't [Em] believe me, says she's gonna [D] leave me, the kids won't even [C] know my name.
Put a gallon in the [Em] stepside and with a little [D] help by morning I won't [C] feel no pain.
[Am] [Em]
[D] [C] [Em]
[D] [C] [Am] Never thought I'd [Em] wind up this far [D] behind, just a couple years [C] back we had it made.
I was empty in my [Em] bladder on a 20-foot [D] ladder, should have climbed down and [C] found myself some
shade.
Doctor took a [Em] quick look and I got out the [D] checkbook and left with a [C] pocket full of pills.
Now my back's still [Em] hurting and I'm too weak for [D] working and I can't keep up [C] with all the bills.
[G] She used to wake me up [C] with coffee every morning [Em] and I'd hear her [D] homemade house [C] shoes
slide across the floor.
[G] She used to make me [C] feel like the king of Oklahoma,
[Em] but nothing makes [D] me feel like [C] much or nothing anymore.
[A] [Em]
[D] [C] [Em]
[D] [C] [Am] I was all set up to [Em] do it, but some bastard beat me [D] to it, and a couple of five [C] left on the lot.
Driving alone I don't [Em] work, but running out [D] and working the cattle is the [C] only thing I've got.
Molly's gonna [Em] leave me, says she don't [D] believe me, I got nothing [C] left to laugh about.
She's going
back to [E] fix me, tired of trying to [D] fix me, says I got some [C] shit to figure out.
[G] She used to wake me
up [C] with coffee every morning [Em] and I'd hear her [D] homemade house [C] shoes slide across the floor.
[G] She used to make me feel like the king of Oklahoma, [Em] but nothing makes [D] me feel like [C] much or nothing
anymore.
[G] She used to wake me up [C] with coffee every morning, [Em] but I'd act like I [D] was sleeping till [C] she
walked back through the door.
[G] She used to make me [C] feel like the king of Oklahoma,
