[Intro] Am F C G Am F C G [Verse 1]
Am                        F
Mama’s grippin’ on her hip on the fifth of May

C                       G
In a photo daddy took on a humid day

Am                       F      
In a town that’s anyone’s guess 

C                     G
Way out in Western Kentucky

Am                           F
She’s broken-hearted as he’s ridin’ away

      C               G         
On a motorbike out to East L.A. 

Am                 F
To find a white line, it’s such a fine line 

C                   G
Between broken and lucky
[Chorus]
F              C                     G                 
Gettin’ high’s easy, gettin’ drunk’s fine

                Am           G           F
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get a soul down

            C                    G
So if you need me, know that I’m bleeding

            Am          G         F    C G Am
Somewhere alone in some coastal town

            F         C G Am
Some coastal town
[Verse 2]
Am                         F               C
And I can feel when your body ain’t in this bed

                     G                          Am
I can still hear you laughing last spring in my head

                     F                           C   G
Now it’s April and I hate you, and I’m heading home

Am                        F
The little notes that you left for me

    C                   G 
In coat pockets and cabinetries, 

Am                 F                    
Are in a shoebox, where we once talked

C                G
Back when I felt free
[Chorus]
F              C                     G                 
Gettin’ high’s easy, gettin’ drunk’s fine

                Am           G           F
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get a soul down

            C                    G
So if you need me, know that I’m bleeding

            Am          G         F    C G Am
Somewhere alone in some coastal town

            F         C G Am
Some coastal town
