[Verse 1]
  Fm             C7
I take a pint of whiskey
    C7             Fm
And crack open its lid
  Fm               C7
I drink the bottle empty
     C7                 Fm
Just like my poor daddy did

[Chorus]
  Db            Ab
I take after my family
   Db               C7
My fate's the blood in me
   Fm               C7
No one grows old in this household
   C7          Fm
We are a dying breed

[Verse 2]
  Fm             C7
I take a red and blue one
C7             Fm
From my Mama's purse
  Fm                 C7
I wash 'em down with homemade wine
   C7                Fm
To see what kicks in first

[Chorus]
  Db            Ab
I take after my family
   Db               C7
My fate's the blood in me
   Fm               C7
No one grows old in this household
   C7          Fm
We are a dying breed

[Bridge]
Fm      C7      C7      Fm

Fm      C7      C7      Fm

Db      Ab      Db      C7

Fm      C7      C7      Fm


[Verse 2]
  Fm           C7
I take another needle
      C7           Fm
Black powder and a spoon
  Fm              C7
I set my sights on heaven
    C7            Fm
And shoot for the moon

[Chorus]
  Db            Ab
I take after my family
   Db               C7
My fate's the blood in me
   Fm               C7
No one grows old in this household
   C7          Fm
We are a dying breed
