Livin' On Borrowed Time

Intro G

G
Well I'm swimmin in debt and the 
money's all gone

I ain't got nothin I can call my own

Work my fingers to the blood and 
bone

For a big dissapointment when my 
paycheck comes
     C
If I only had a little I could do 
just fine
        G
I could put a down payment on a 
piece of mine
        D
But I'm hangin on the end of a 
credit line
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time


G
My trucks financed through the union
 bank

But I don't have enough to even fill
 the tank

I'd take ya for a ride girl but I 
just can't

Cause the damn old motor won't even 
crank
    C
Our trailers plenty big if we live 
down size
      G
But I can't swing the payments on a 
double wide
D
Ya better hold a place in that 
welfare line
G
Cause I'm just livin on borrowed 
time

Chorus:
C
If it comes in cheap but it don't 
come free
        G
Then it stays off limits to a guy 
like me
C
They say it brings trouble havin 
money to burn
  A7                            
I reckon that's a lesson I won't 
 D
have to learn


Slide Guitar Solo

Sing Chorus

G
Yeah I bought my wife a little 
diamond ring

Her mom said hun can't even see that

It'll be paid of when I'm sixty five

If I'm lucky enough to even be alive
C
Even if I was to pass away
   G
My family doesn't have enough to dig
 my grave
D
No tombstone just on old wood sign
      G
Sayin he was just livin on borrowed 
time
D
Out there swingin from a credit line
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time
G
Lord I'm just livin on borrowed time
