D
Lately things ain't been going my way
G
Consequently I've been drinking nearly every day
A
It's hard to keep your head up when they're knocking you down
D
So I been making that all go round
D
Drinking bottom shelf bourbon to ease my mind
G
Seems to work alright 'til closing time
A
But you know you're gonna come down every night
D
And there ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
G
Ain't that hard to figure where to begin
D
It's Friday night so I'm rushing in
E A
Like a fool I get it anywhere I can
Chorus
D D
Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight line
G
Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
D
you'll find me downtown
Dsus7
Gracefully face down
E A D
Just wishing I could feel alright
Verse
D
Lately I've been wanderin around with eyes closed
G
It seems like I been heading down the wrong road
A
I Thought I'd find my way by now
D
But I still got lost somehow
D
You hear shots fall down from Heaven above, You might
G
lose a friend you might fall in love, But you
A
know you're gonna come down every night, and there
D
ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
G
Six in the morning 'til your dying day, it's
D
straight bad news and bills to pay, but come
E A
five o'clock you're feeling good again
Chorus
D D
Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight line
G
Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
D
you'll find me downtown
Dsus7
Gracefully face down
E A D
Just wishing I could feel alright
Verse
D
Well I been so high I hit my head on the ground, Sat
G
up on the floor seems the room spin around, But when you
A
squint real hard through the bottom of the bottle, Things
D
really don't look so bad
D
You drink a cheap malt liquor from a 40 oz bottle
G
Swig some bourbon, some pills if you've got 'em, But you
A
know you're gonna come down every night and there
D
ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied, There's
G
years of my life I don't remember at all, Like
D
one Friday evening I can barely recall, There was a
E A
sad situation in a bar room bathroom stall
Chorus
D D
Well I'm having a hard time Walking a straight line
G
Seeing two of every single neon sign Well now
D
you'll find me downtown
Dsus7
Gracefully face down
E A D Dsus7
Just wishing I could feel alright
E A D
Just wishing I could feel alright
