One Drink Short of Dyin'

G-D/F#-C-Em-D
Many times I've wondered, what's become of me
All My aspirations seemed to vanish in the sea
The Road that I should follow is right in front of me
Now I'm broke and hollow hung up in the debris

F-C-A7-D7
All the weight in this world coming down on me
I can't kill this wicked thirst lord won't ya hear my plea

And it's one in the morning, two in the day,
One drink in the evening to chase the blues away
and I drink Many on the weekends, just to pass the time
I'm one drink short of dying and I don't seem to mind

I know come monday morning I'll awake to find
I can't recall where I've been since Saturday at Nine
And I can't seem to remember but I never quite forget
Try to find some piece of mind but I end up with regret

All alone in this world, nothing left for me
I've been dealt a losing hand lord won't ya set me free

And it's one in the morning, two in the day,
One drink in the evening to chase the blues away
and I drink Many on the weekends, just to pass the time
I'm one drink short of dying and I don't seem to mind

(Bridge) Em-D-Am-D7
I'm likely to pass out right across the railroad tracks
well it feels just like a freight train runnin right across my back

Lead over (Prechorus) F-C-A7-D7
