Slaid Cleaves - Drinkin' Days
Standard tuning
My drin[E]king days are over
No more n[A]ights at the Carou[E]sel
[E]My buddies say they're gonna miss me but
[E]Who could ever t[B]ell
[A]I never knew what time i[E]t was
Til [E]closing time came round[A]
[E]My drinking days are ov[B]er
[A]But I'm still trou[E]blebound
I u[E]sed to hang at the Horseshoe
[E]You'd see me sp[A]inning at the Broken Sp[E]oke
[E]I'd take my gal to The Gaslight
[E]We lived on whiskey and smok[B]e
[A]Don't know how it all sta[E]rted
[E]Didn't mean to hurt no on[A]e
[E]Some bad luck and what's d[B]one can't be undo[E]ne
Well it was way past midnight
Anetta hollered out last call
I turned around and Wranglin' Ron
Was headed for a brawl
I didn't know that other guy was a cop
I guess I didn't care
Sometime you gotta act like you gotta pair
My drinking days are over...
I got a ride out to Huntsville
I'll be there for a while
Staring out a mesh window
Mile after mile
I don't have any regrets, well
Maybe just a few
A man's gonna do what he's gonna do
My drinking days are over...
