[A] 
I Like [A] Drinking to for[E]get your [A] name 
And I smoke [D] reefer a'do much the [A] same 
[D] Between me and you - there's ain't [A] nothing I wouldn't do 
to untangle these [E] ties with [A] you 

How much [A] sweet life [E] source have you [A] took 
I keep [D] thinking I'd rather not [A] look 
Our [D] love's like a fern that’s been [A] dried up and burned 
[A] It's absurd - but I keep [E] coming [A] back. 

[D] Oh believe me bruther 
[D] I bleeve I'd ruther 
dig a [A] hole and crawl in the ground 
[D] Between you and I, I think I'd ruther die 
[A] So I'll just stay drunk all the [E] time 

I've been [A] over and [E] over this [A] girl 
But [D] you like the rattle snakes [A] curl 
You coil to [D] strike me again 
In my [A] wide world of sin 
[A] lights out I [E] think it’s the [A] end 
have [A] mercy on [E] me Jesus [D] Christ [A]
