Capo: 1
Intro: Am G Am C G
I'm feeling kind of banged [Am]up
Slow out of the [G]bed
Neon [Am]noise and honkey-tonk [C]wine ringing in my [G]head
Last night I saw your [Am]car
I overheard your [G]name
Pulled my hat down [Am]low, wouldn't want you to [C]know I was in this [G]shape
Chorus:
Now these [C]old beer bones
Are like a rusty old plow
These [G]cigarette eyes are
'Bout to burn out
But they're [Am]still doing better[C]
Better than my [G]heart
These [C]whiskey worn lips can't muster up a smile
The [G]soles on my boots have walked their last mile
But they're [Am]still doing better[C]
Better than my [G]heart
You filled it with your [Am]love
Then you drained it [G]out
Sometimes I think you [Am]built it [C]up
Just to break it [G]down
Now all that's really [Am]left
Is an emptiness [G]inside
A river running [Am]cold, memories growing [C]old
Dying right there on the [G]vine
(Chorus x2)(Play Intro between Chorus 1 and 2)
Yeah, they're [Am]still doing better[C]
Better than my [G]heart[Am]
Better than my [G]heart
[Am] [C] [G]
