[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
My [C]Sweetheart has
gone and I'm so lonely
She said that she and I [G]were through
So I [C]started out drinkin' for a pastime
Drivin' nails in my coffin [G]over [C]you
[Am]I'm just d[C]rivin' nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of [G]booze
I'm just [C]drivin' nails in my coffin
Lordy, drivin' those [G]nails over [C]you
Oh, come in, [Am]Ray.[C][Am][C][G][C][G][C]
Oh, let's hear it for you,
[G]Jimmy.[C][G][C]
Ever since the day that we parted,
I've been so sad and so [G]blue.
[C]I'm always thinking of you, love,
and I just can't quit drinking
that old booze.
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
every time I drink a bottle of [G]booze.
I'm just [C]drivin' nails in my coffin
Lord, he's drivin' those [G]nails over [C]you
Aw, [G]Jim[C][G][C]
Now you've turned me down,
you don't want me
There's nothin' now I can [G]lose
I'm just [C]drivin' those nails in my coffin
And worryin' my [G]darlin' over [C]you
I'm just drivin' nails in my coffin
Every time I drink a bottle of [G]booze
I'm just [C]drivin' nails in my coffin
Lord, he's drivin' those [G]nails over you
[C]
