Asus2 E B C#m

[Verse 1]
C#m A E
Mama’s grippin’ on her hip on the fifth of May
B C#m
In a photo daddy took in a humid day
A
In a town that’s anyone’s guess
E B
Way out in western Kentucky
C#m A
She’s broken-hearted as he’s ridin’ away
E B
On a motorbike out to east L.A.
C#m
To find a white line
A
It’s such a fine line
E B
Between broken and lucky

[Chorus]
A E
Gettin’ high’s easy
B
Gettin’ drunk is fine
C#m B A
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get us all down
E
So if you need me
B
Know that I’m bleeding
C#m B A
Somewhere alone in some coastal town

[Verse 2]
C#m A E
And I can feel when your body ain’t in this bed
B C#m
I can still hear you laughing last spring in my head
A E B
Now it’s April and I hate you and I’m heading home

[Verse 3]
C#m A
The little notes that you left for me
E B
In coat pockets and cabinetries
C#m A
Are in a shoebox where we once talked
E B
Back when I felt free

[Chorus]
A E
Gettin’ high’s easy
B
Gettin’ drunk is fine
C#m B A
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get us all down
E
So if you need me
B
Know that I’m bleeding
C#m B A
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
