D
Bartender, i really did it this time
Dmaj7
broke my parole to have a good time
G
when i got home it was 6 a.m.
A
the door was locked so i kicked it in
D
She was trippin' on the bills
Dmaj7
i think she was high on some pills
G
she threw my shit out into the yard
A
called me a bum and smaked me real hard
D
and in my drunken stupor
Dmaj7
I did what i should've never done
G
now im sittin' here talkin to you
A
drunk and on the run
-Chorus-
D
I'm sittin' at a bar on the inside
Dmaj7
waitin' for my ride on the outside
G
she broke my heart in the trailer park
C5
so i jaked the keys to her fuckin' car
A
crashed that peice of shit and then stepped away
(repeat chord progression)
you know, moe, i'll probably get ten years
so just give me beers till they get here
yeah i know the sun is comin up
and ya'll are probably gettin' ready for closin up
but im tryin' to drown my soul
I'm tired of this life on the dirt road
And everything that i love is gone
and I'm tired of hangin' on
(Chorus)
And now I'm goin' back again
back to the pen to see my friends
and when we all pile ou that country van
they'll ask me where i've been
I've been sitting at a bar on the inside
waitin' for my ride on the outside
she broke my heart in the trailer park
so i jacked the keys to her fuckin' car
and then stepped away
