Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Violins]
[D][D][A][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I only had a couple drinks last night
And few good hits from an antler pipe
And I [G]must admit, I had a few white lines
And I [D]don't know what all happened
I woke up in the noon time light
With a poundin' head, shiner on my eye
And I [G]don't know how and I don't why
But it [D]feels like fierce abandon

[Chorus 1]
Ah, [A]working on a buildin'
out'a hand-hewn [D]brimstone
[A]Workin' on a buildin'
and I'm buildin' on it all a[D]lone
Well, there [G]ain't nobody in my room tonight
Goodnight honey, honey sleep tight
[D]Ma, I swear I'm doing alright
But when the [A]evenin' comes around
I swear to [D]God

[Solo 1]
[D][D][D][D]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]

[Verse 2]
[D]Pay no mind to the words I say
'Cause they ain't no count anyway
I been [G]ramblin' around and led astray
By the [D]paths that I been choosin'
Cuttin' paths like a forest fire
Pupils wider than backhoe tires
[G]Throwin' my money on a funeral pyre
But it [D]sure feels good abusin'

[Chorus 2]
Ah, [A]working on a buildin'
out'a hand-hewn [D]brimstone
[A]Workin' on a buildin'
and I'm buildin' on it all a[D]lone
Well, there [G]ain't nobody in my room tonight
Goodnight honey, honey sleep tight
[D]Ma, I swear I'm doing alright
But when the [A]evenin' comes around
I swear to [D]God

[Solo 2]
[D][D][D][D]
[G][G][D][D]
[A][A][D][D]

[Bridge 1]
[G]Bands too loud for their bible [D]thumpin'
[G]Feels too good to not count for [A]somethin'

[Verse 3]
[D]Big Sandy rock, Sludge River roll
Goddamn, fire in the hole
[G]Look out baby, I'm bound to blow
I'm [D]bound to blow a gasket
Damn good gig, good damn crowd
Good God, for cryin' out loud
[G]Coming off stage I was mighty proud
Then I [D]don't know what all happened

[Chorus 3]
Ah, [A]working on a buildin'
out'a hand-hewn [D]brimstone
[A]Workin' on a buildin'
and I'm buildin' on it all a[D]lone
Well, there [G]ain't nobody in my room tonight
Goodnight honey, honey sleep tight
[D]Ma, I swear I'm doing alright
But when the [A]evenin' comes around
I swear to [D]God
I swear to God
