[Em] [D] [G] [C] We'll [Am] take the copper from the work [Em] site, meet me there at [D] midnight, they ain't got a [C] camera or a guard.
Write my own prescription [Em] if I can't get a fix [D] on shit's about to get [C] real hard.
Molly [Em] don't believe me, says she's gonna leave [D] me, the kids [G] won't even know [C] my name.
Put the cabin [Em] in the stepside, with a little help [D] I'm wanted I won't feel [C] no [Em] pain.

[Em] [D] [G] [C] [Em]
[Am] Never [Em] thought I'd wind up this far behind, [D] just a couple years back we [C] had it made.
I was empty in my bladder [Em] on a twenty foot ladder, [D] soon to climb down and found [C] myself some shade.
Doctor took a quick [Em] look and I got out the tech [D] book and left with a pocket [C] full of pills.
Now my back's still hurting [Em] and I'm too weak for working [D] and I can't keep up with [C] all the bills.
[G] She used to wake me up for [C] coffee every morning, [D] and [Em] I'd hear her [D] homemade house shoes
[C] slide across the floor.
[G] She used to make me feel [C] like the king of Oklahoma, but [Em] nothing makes [D] me feel like Montreal, [C] nothing anymore.
[Am] [Em] [D] [C]
[Em] [D] [C]
[Am] I was all set up to do it, [Em] but some magic didn't do [D] it, a couple of pipes left [C] on the wall.
I'm [Em] running out of milk [D] and the cattle is the only [C] thing I've got.
Mommy's [Em] gonna leave me, says she don't believe [D] me, I got nothing left to [C] laugh about.
She's going back to bed, [E] still tired of [Em] trying to fix [D] me, says I got some shit [C] to figure out.
[G] She used to wake me up for [C] coffee every [Em] morning, and I'd hear her homemade [D] [G] house shoes [C] slide across the floor.
