I woke up in Houston
              G
in somebody's kitchen
               D7
the ceiling was sweating
          G
and i was afloat
                C
on a dirty brown river
          G
of heroin shivers
           D7                  G
waiting on someone to send me a boat
Am            C
i went back to Charlotte
                  G

            D7
a girl with a stutter
           G
and didn't love me
                 C

C           G

so i went down to Tampa
           G
to find me an answer
             D7
but it wasn't coming
            G
and neither was she
   D7            C

             G
where nobody knows me
               D7

that i had to leave

i looked death in the face
            G
it was only my father
               D7
if i had known all along
               G
i wouldn't have bothered
           C
with being afraid
           G
with being a coward
           D7
and trying to fool
                G
some mysterious power
      D7     C
cause i don't believe it
       G

       D7
