Adam Carroll-Rough Side
Album-Let It Choose You
D G
Gonna get my news form a bottle
C G
Spill it on a concrete floor
D Em
Should be old enough to know better
D Em
I beat a path to the jailhouse door
When I spied lucky pete
Slipping out with ruby jane
Left me leaning hard into the night
Bloodied my knuckles where I carved her name
Chorus:
Em C G
I used to be an able bodied man
D Em
Whistling to charlie pride
C G
While my pay slid though my hands
D Em
Cutting time on the old rough side
D G
Making time on the old rough side
Never played that straight and narrow
I never laid that party down
Burned it up like a flaming arrow
Buying every other round
Now the voices and the laughter
In my ears I can hear them ring
With my head laid out on the courthouse lawn
Not a penny to my name
Chorus:
I used to be an able bodied man
Whistling to charlie pride
While my pay slid though my hands
Cutting time on the old rough side
Making time on the old rough side
