Methamphetamine

Intro

   

Verse 1:


I took the night shift

Another nickel on the dime

Try to play it straight make it different this time
                                
Still waiting to meet the next ex wife

It's either watching these gauges for Monsanto

Or a bar back job at the casino
                                                 
The army won't want me after what this body's been through

Chorus:
                            
Would you take me back North Carolina
                           
Would you take me back Arkansas
                            
Blissful days still there to remember
                             
Methamphetamine was the final straw

Solo over chorus chords:

         

Verse 2:

I had a killer job in a backup band
Playing guitar in Branson
Two shows a night brought the money to chase down sin

Now it's another weekend lonely at home
Late night TV evangelist drone
I'm healthy now but I really don't know if I'll ever be free

Repeat Chorus x2

Outro: solo over chorus chords:
