[Am]Sometimes I don't know where this

Seems [Am]easier than [Em]waiting around to
[Am]die

Sometimes friends I had a ma I [Dm]even
had a pa

around to [Am]die

in a [Dm]Tuscaloosa bar
She [Am]cleaned me out and hit it on

Seemed [Am]easier than just [Em]waitin
around to [Am]die

Well a friend said he knew where
some [Dm]easy money was
We [Am]robbed the man and brother did

to [Am]die

Oh together we're goin to [Em]wait
around and [Am]die
