Em D C B#m A G D

[Verse]
C           G                 DPour me up a drink, there's a bottle in the seat
Em           D                 CI'm only half way to crazy by now
       C                  G       DWe are past that breaking point, past that road of choice
          Em             D            CAnd there ain't nothing left in this town
             Em           D             CI thought by now I woulda figured shit out

[Verse]
Em       D             C        GYou and me we got some bad reputations
    Em               D             CWe dance round like thieves in the night
Em          D                   C        GI bet your halo could use some reconsideration
              Em              D            CBut it's the only thing that makes this alright

[Chorus]
       Em                DHeaven knows time ain't slowing down
     C              G           D                Yeah we still kick around our same ol' stomping grounds
     Em           DAnd life, it'll pass you by
    C                         G              D             As you drink all through the night under a Houston county sky

    C                G           DYou was the peanut queen, I was 17 and mean
           Em         D          CYou wanted so bad to leave this town

Em              D                  C               GHey darling, I love you, but the smoke is getting hazy
      Em              D              CMaybe we should just get drunk and fight
            Em       D          CDown at the Gin on a Saturday night
