[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
1st thing in the morning on her 2nd cup of coffee, said
G
Girl I need a smoke break
G
Sitting on the front steps, talking through her cigarette
G
Life’s a drag you learn the hard way
C
What it is, what it wasn’t, how she lived through her 3rd husband
G
Looked at my left hand, when you gonna find a man
G
I said the day you quit those things
D C F
And she just laughed, grabbed the last one out the pack, she said…
[Chorus]
G C
One day everybody’s gonna wind up dead
Bb G C
Between a heartbreak and a hard place get pretty good at cheating death

I lose another lover and I just light up another and it ain’t killed me yet so

It ain’t my decision when it’s time to go to heaven but I’m ready when He calls my name

‘Til then all I can tell you is
[Chorus]
