Living Beyond My Means

Capo 3

C                                  
Livin' beyond my means, don't know 
F
how I'm gonna get by
C                                
Livin' beyond my means, don't ya 
G
know a man's got to try
C                                
Don't know how it started, all I 
F
know is it's got to end
      C               G        
Got a noose around my neck and I 
             C
don't know why

I followed you to Detroit City then 
down to New Orleans
Trail after trail with nothing but a
 bottle of too old gin
Continues after the ad
Don't know where you lead me all I 
know is I've got to go
Gotta find you baby, before I'm too 
old

G                F
Livin' beyond my means
F                         C
With all these loving you things
G                       F
Don't know how I'll get by
F            C
Lord help me try


Do you remember that night in Dallas
 when you stole my heart
I didn't put up a fight, baby just 
to find me one more start
Now it's taken me out of my home and
 put me out on the street
This loving you thing has got me 
beat

Chorus

I called your name in Boston where I
 thought that you might be
On my way back to Texas, I took a 
long look down in Tennessee
This wild turkey chase, well, it's 
got the best of me
I guess it's best to quit when 
you're behind

Chorus
