[Verse 1]
    E                      A            E
In a small corner bar, he sits there a-drinkin'

 E       A                       E
Lost as a ball in a field full of corn

  E    A                   E
Further away than he ever imagined

           B7       A                        E
That he'd ever end up from the place he was born

             E
Now no more forlorn as the Creeker drank whiskey

                       A                  E
Than the one that you see outside of your eye

  E      A                         E
Drinkin' alone as he looks out the window

                B7               A      E
At all of the strangers on the corner outside
[Chorus]
                A                        E
He'd rather be dead than alive one more minute

        B7     A     E
In this godforsaken town

               A                           E
When he was a kid, Lord, he'd never have dreamt it

                       F#m               A          E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
[Verse 2]
E                      A                          E
Now they knew not his name and he knew not their faces

                    A                       E
And he knew not the how nor the reason for why

                    A                      E
You could ever wake up and wanna keep on a-livin'

                    B7              A             E
In a place where a friend is such a hard thing to find

 E
And for everyone you meet, there's a whole mess of people

            A                    E
Tryin' like hell to pull you on down

                     A                          E
To the level they're on and the trouble they're tendin'

                         B7             A           E
In the mess that they've made, in the gutter they found
[Chorus]
                A                        E
He'd rather be dead than alive one more minute

         B7     A    E
In this godforsaken town

              A                           E
When he was a kid, Lord, he'd never have dreamt it

                       F#m              A           E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
[Bridge]
E                         A              E
Some fellas do pills and things of that nature

                   A                     E
Some fellas chase girls to hang on their arm

                A                 E
Some fellas get by on practically nothin'

                 B7          A           E
Some fellas get pissed in a small corner bar
[Chorus]
                      A                        E
And they'd rather be dead than alive one more minute

         B7    A     E
In this godforsaken town

                    A                             E
When they were all kids, Lord, they'd never have dreamt it

                       F#m               A          E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
