Verse 1:

Em(lick above)
There was a time in West Virginia

When the cops showed up when the 
shop blowed up

Man we didn't know what was gonna 
happen.
Em(same lick)
Messed the whole place up and tried 
to kill my dad

Took all the money I had and what 
was really bad

Was I couldn't do nothing to stop 
'em.

Bridges:

C                             D
Had to move to Mexico to get away
You reap the seeds you sew, or  so 
      Em
they say,
I spent most of my nights at a place
                C
 called the Rainbow Bar.

             G               D 
Drinking cervezas all night long 
           C            G
singing Mexican love songs,
C                            G   
Getting all the words all wrong 
            D
not givin a damn.
       G                   D      
Hoping that my luck might change, 
        C                G
feeling crazy and acting strange,
      C                G          
Never worried bout the danger I 
  D
was in.

                  Em         C    
Cause I've had a mighty bad run of
             G             D
 luck since you left this town,
     Em               C           
Sometimes you hit the brakes but 
   G          D
you cant slow down,
              Em             
I know what I want on my damn 
 C                   G          
tombstone when they put me in the 
   D
ground,

Em(let ring)
Tell 'em to write it big and tall or
 not at all.

Chorus:
         G   D       Em      C
Just put I'm good now'
G    D   Em     C
I'm good now'.
G    D   Em      C
I'm good now'
G    D   Em       C
I'm good now.

(Everything is the same as previous 
verse, bridges and chorus, except
the lick is different, so I just 
bass strum that E minor and it 
sounds good)

Well as the story goes, things only 
got worse, I fell in love with a 
nurse,
She smuggled drugs in her purse, she
 worked for Doctor Gonzales.
It turns out the doc was a mighty 
mean man, he couldn't understand,
That things can get out of hand, I 
guess hes gonna find out though.

He tried to stop her one night, she 
pulled out a knife,
There was a struggle and there at 
the end he fell,
As she ran home, he was on the floor
 dying.

Wondering bout the things he'd done,
 wondering bout his life and fun 
he'd had,
Choices that he made and roads he'd 
taken,
And he thought about his kids, and 
all the crazy things he did,
Wondered if anything at all really 
matters,

Cause when your life is almost over 
and there's no hope to be found,
And you're dying and your blood is 
spilling out over the ground.
And the last words that he said 
though he could hardly make a sound,
And he spoke each word in Spanish, 
cause he couldn't speak no English,

He said I'm good now'
