(Intro.)
|(G) / / / |(G) / / / |(G) / / Here we go |(G) / /

(Verse 1)
There's a (G)storm brewin' in a pool hall down in Houston
Where some (C)poor old boy's 'bout to get his teeth knocked (G)out
In the (G)bathroom it was snowin', drip so good it had me chokin'
Plus a (C)fifth of cheap tequila so you better watch out

(Chorus)
I've got a (C)nine lives state of mind, (G)bettin' it all with a roll of dice
(D)People seem to lose their luck when I come a-(G)round
I've got a (C)twelve pack, two dime bags, (G)flatlined twice just to come right back
(D)God blessed me, the (C)first eight didn't count (G)
Keep on (D)tryin' your best to put the (C)black cat down (G) / / / |(G) / /

(Verse 2)
Lost the (G)first one to a dealer, lost the second one to a preacher
And (C)three and four to the twins that live next (G)door
Well, at the (G)fifth one I saw Heaven, married six on top of seven
And I (C)lost the eighth tryin' to be a rodeo (G)clown - - -

(Chorus)
Still got a (C)nine lives state of mind, (G)bettin' it all with a roll of dice
(D)People seem to lose their luck when I come a-(G)round
I've got a (C)twelve pack, two dime bags, (G)flatlined twice just to come right back
(D)God blessed me, the (C)first eight didn't count (G)
Keep on (D)tryin' your best to put the (C)black cat down

Still got a (C)nine lives state of mind, (G)bettin' it all with a roll of dice

Keep on (Am)tryin' your best to put the (C)black cat down (G)
