38 Special

         G             D           
Well I'm drinking by myself, while 
C         D
everybody else
      G                 D         
Sings songs down in the park, 
        C                D
brown paper bagging it after dark
           G               D 
But it's a plastic bag for me, 
       C           D
carrying my groceries
      G           D                
A few cans of champagne, chose the 
C                 D
high life for the rain

[Verse 2]
        G                 D       
And the door man calls my name, 
       C                 D
good old Joe sure knows my game
          G                     
Though he says it's the youth to 
 D              C              D
blame, I can't say I feel the same
            G              D      
See I'll be nursing number one and
     C                D
 too soon beer two is done
              G            D      
And then it's three, four, five, 
       C                 D
six and they're all empty again

[Chorus]
    Em             D       C
And still half the flask I always 
forget I have
Em                               
Sitting in in my office with my 
D              C
.38 special revolver
Em             D       C
Still half the flask I always forget
 I have
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C
special revolver
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C
special revolver
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C

[Verse 3]
G       D            C           
Looking back through another empty 
  D
glass
       G           D      C      D
To the past when I was so small
G       D        C            D
Peaking over the counter that 
       G
was too tall
            D            C   D
Stealing my first sip of alcohol
G                D        C      D
This could be my last slug of it all

[Chorus]
        Em             D     
There's still half the flask I 
  C
always forget I have
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C
special revolver
Em             D       C
Still half the flask I always forget
 I have
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C
special revolver
Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C

Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C

Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38 
            C

Em                            D  
Sitting in my office with my .38

special revolver

[Refrain]
Em       B              D       
  If the dead haunt the places 
     C
their bodies are found
Em         B          D           C
  Chamber me one last round to see
      Em           B        D    
If my luck will keep, if my luck 
        C
will keep
       Em       B          D     
Oh yes chamber me one last round 
     C
to see
      Em        B         D
If my luck will keep this gun 
        C
company

G             D           C     
Drinking by myself, while 
    D
everybody else
   G                 D             
Is passed out in the park or going 
C              D
home in police cars
           G           D          
They sing, Oh la da da oh la la
