C#m                    A                   E
Mama's grippin' on her hip on the fifth of May

                  B              C#m
In a photo daddy took on a humid day

                  A
In a town that's anyone's guess

     E                 B
Way out in western Kentucky

C#m                           A
She's broken-hearted as he's ridin' away

      E                B
On a motorbike out to east L.A.

C#m
To find a white line

A
It's such a fine line

E                   B
Between broken and lucky
[Chorus]
A               E
Gettin' high's easy

                  B
Gettin' drunk is fine

                C#m          B           A
It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down

           E
So if you need me

               B
Know that I'm bleeding

           C#m           B       A     E  B C#m
Somewhere alone in some coastal town

      A       E   B C#m
Some coastal town
[Verse 2]
C#m                       A                 E
And I can feel when your body ain't in this bed

                       B                        C#m
I can still hear you laughing last spring in my head

                      A                        E    B
Now it's April and I hate you and I'm heading home

C#m                        A
The little notes that you left for me

    E                 B
In coat pockets and cabinetries

C#m               A
Are in a shoebox where we once talked

E                 B
Back when I felt free
[Chorus]
A               E
Gettin' high's easy

                  B
Gettin' drunk is fine

It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down

So if you need me

               B
Know that I'm bleeding
