[Intro]
Am G F 2x
[Verse 1]
Am G F
Marboro’s one after another
Am G F
Smoke in the air I start to smother

My momma would be disappointed
Am G F
If she knew the things her boy did
[Verse 2]
Am G F
Cop gets behind me in the line
Am G F
I’m rolling 90 down main
Am G F
I put the peddle to the floor
Am G F
I don’t care anymore
[Chorus]
Am G F
I’m coming down from a life that never
changed
Am G F
I go through the struggle each and every day
Am G F
I play cheap guitars to make my months rent
Am G F
Them 2 dollar beers are worth my moneys
spent
Am G F
I’m on the wrong road of life
Am G F
I’m all alone barely getting by
[Verse 3]
Am G F
I’ve never held a good thing
Am G F
It always ends up slipping away
Am G F
Like the fact that she loved me
Am G F
I was to dumb to see
[Chorus]
Am G F
I’m coming down from a life that never
changed
Am G F
I go through the struggle each and every day
Am G F
I play cheap guitars to make my months rent
Am G F
Them 2 dollar beers are worth my moneys
spent
Am G F
I’m on the wrong road of life
Am G F
I’m all alone barely getting by 2x
[Outro]
