D                                            G              D 
Well your wishes and your feelings, your bad dreams and intuitions
     D                                                           A
Are about as much use to me right now as a brand new set of golf clubs
      G                                        D
We've been this close to death before, we were just too drunk to know it
          D                           A                  D
Guess the price of being sobers being scared out of your mind


Chorus 1:
        G                               D 
When it comes your time to go, ain't no good way to go about it
         D                                                     A 
Ain't no use in thinking bout it, you'll just drive yourself insane
G                                         D
There comes a time for everything and the time has come for you 
             D                  A          D
To shut your mouth and get your ass on the plane


Solo

There ain't nothing I'd rather do right now than just go on home and lay around
But that ain't never an option for a working man like me
How much is enough you ask, I'll ask the man when I get a chance
All I know right now, there's somewhere else I'm suppose to be

Chorus 1

Chorus 2:
Screaming engines, shooting flames, dirty needles and cheap cocaine
Some gal's old man with a gun to me it's all the same
Dead is dead and it ain't no different than walking around if you ain't living
Living in fear's just another way of dying before your time

Chorus 1
