Em                             G
Most of my friends are behind bars

         Am                             Em
They're servin' time so I can get long gone, yeah
[Verse]
 Em                       G
Jack's got a rap sheet a country mile long

       Am
We're thick as thieves, but he'll leave me

       Em
Still drunk wakin' up on the neighbor's lawn

 Em                             G
Jose's got a death wish, we've had some crazy nights

          Am
But he's been with me since about '03

          Em
You could say we're doin' life
[Chorus]
 Em                            G
Most of my friends are behind bars

Most of my friends are behind bars

      Am                                 Em
I'll break 'em out and pour 'em up real strong
[Verse]
Em                               G
I fell out with Jim Beam, but I still see him around

       Am
But I wish him well,

                                Em
But can't take the hell that he put me through downtown

 Em                           G
Sometimes an old boy's gotta know when shit ain't for ya

            Am                         Em
Well every time I drinkit might be me versus the state of Georgia
[Chorus]
 Em                            G
