[Intro]
Am C
He had a shot of Jäger in his left hand, a dose of Cuervo in his right.
Dm E
He was bound and determined not to live through the night.
[Verse 1]
Am C
Thirty years of laboring, had left him worn down to the bone
Dm E
A couple of divorces had left him broke and all alone
Am C
Busted bar fight bones made him hard and a little rough
Dm F G
Nothin’ much mattered to him now, he had simply had enough
[Verse 2]
Am C
He had no use for crying, had no use for living too
Dm E
He had a use for dying, to kill off all of his blues
Am C
End the pain, end the shame, end the endless games
Dm F G
He downed a shot, and he ordered up, dancing closer to the flames
[Chorus]
Am F#m
Life can beat a man down ‘til he just can’t stand no more
Dm F E
But a man can always choose to walk on out the door
[Verse 3]
Am C
Then a tall one slaked into the bar, took the stool right next to him
Dm E
“You a two fisted drinker” she asked, he replied with a sly grin
Am C
She was packed tight into her jeans, blue eyes flashed his way
Dm F G
He had come that night planning to exit, now he kinda wanted to stay
[Verse 4]
Am C
“Nah, I just kinda knew you’d be coming through”
Dm E
“So, I ordered myself up a drink, and I ordered one for you too.”
Am C
She turned and smiled, and he slid that Jäger her way
Dm F G
“Cowboy, you charmed me, but give me that Jose.”
[Chorus]
Am F#m
Doesn’t matter what you gamble, or the cards you gotta to play
DM F E
If the Devil’s ain’t ready to take you, he’ll find a way to make you stay
