Shut Up and Get On the Plane
By: Drive-by Truckers
Tuning: Whole step down
D G D
Well your wishes and your feelings, your bad dreams and intuitions
D A
Are about as much use to me right now as a brand new set of golf clubs
G D
We've been this close to death before, we were just too drunk to know it
D A D
Guess the price of being sober's being scared out of your mind
Chorus 1:
G D
When it comes your time to go, ain't no good way to go about it
D A
Ain't no use in thinking bout it, you'll just drive yourself insane
G D
There comes a time for everything and the time has come for you
D A D
To shut your mouth and get your ass on the plane
Solo
D G D
There ain't nothing I'd rather do right now than just go on home and lay around
D A
But that ain't never an option for a working man like me
G D
How much is enough you ask, I'll ask the man when I get a chance
D A D
All I know right now, there's somewhere else I'm suppose to be
Chorus 1:
G D
When it comes your time to go, ain't no good way to go about it
D A
Ain't no use in thinking bout it, you'll just drive yourself insane
G D
There comes a time for everything and the time has come for you
D A D
To shut your mouth and get your ass on the plane
Chorus 2:
G D
Screaming engines, shooting flames, dirty needles and cheap cocaine
D A
Some gal's old man with a gun to me it's all the same
G D
Dead is dead and it ain't no different than walking around if you ain't living
D A D
Living in fear's just another way of dying before your time
Chorus 1:
G D
When it comes your time to go, ain't no good way to go about it
D A
Ain't no use in thinking bout it, you'll just drive yourself insane
G D
There comes a time for everything and the time has come for you
D A D
To shut your mouth and get your ass on the plane
