[D]Lately things ain't been going my way
[G]Consequently I've been drinking nearly every day
[A]It's hard to keep your head up when they're knocking you down
So I been [D]making that all go round
[D]Drinking bottom shelf bourbon to ease my mind
Seems to w[G]ork alright 'til closing time
[A]But you know you're gonna come down every night
And there a[D]in't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
[G]Ain't that hard to figure where to begin
It's F[D]riday night so I'm rushing in
Like a fo[E]ol I get it anywhere I ca[A]n
Chorus
[D]Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight [D]line
[G]Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
[D]you'll find me downtown
[Dsus7]Gracefully face down
[E]Just wishing I could [A] feel a[D]lright
Verse
[D]Lately I've been wanderin around with eyes closed
It s[G]eems like I been heading down the wrong road
I T[A]hought I'd find my way by now
But I sti[D]ll got lost somehow
[D]You hear shots fall down from Heaven above, You might
[G]lose a friend you might fall in love, But you
[A]know you're gonna come down every night, and there
[D]ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
[G]Six in the morning 'til your dying day, it's
[D]straight bad news and bills to pay, but come
[E]five o'clock you're feeling good ag[A]ain
Chorus
[D]Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight [D]line
[G]Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
[D]you'll find me downtown
[Dsus7]Gracefully face down
[E]Just wishing I could [A] feel a[D]lright
Verse
[D]Well I been so high I hit my head on the ground, Sat
[G]up on the floor seems the room spin around, But when you
[A]squint real hard through the bottom of the bottle, Things
[D]really don't look so bad
[D]You drink a cheap malt liquor from a 40 oz bottle
[G]Swig some bourbon, some pills if you've got 'em, But you
[A]know you're gonna come down every night and there
[D]ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied, There's
[G]years of my life I don't remember at all, Like
[D]one Friday evening I can barely recall, There was a
[E]sad situation in a bar room bathroom s[A]tall
Chorus
[D]Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight [D]line
[G]Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
[D]you'll find me downtown
[Dsus7]Gracefully face down
[E]Just wishing I could [A] feel a[D]lrigh[Dsus7]t
