Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]I was a stumble bummin' down
the neon [G]Mu sic City sidewalks
With the [A]junkie and the juicehead who
had [G]problems of their [D]own
Stuck with luck it kept me standin'
just a [G]step away from starvin'
And the [A]talent that I swore I'd show
be[G]fore I'd go back [D]home
[G]Ninety days

[Verse 2]
I looked the army
makin' neither love nor money
And my [D]only set of clothes was
gettin' [E]closer to the [A]bone
And the [D]junkie placed an order with
the [G]prophet on the corner
And he [A]told him of the soul that
he'd been [G]sellin' for a song
[D]

[Verse 3]
He said [G]my future was my
fortune but I [D]let it slip away
Slowly [A]smokin' myself broke on
eighty ci[D]garettes a day
[G]Findin' out that crime ain't all
there [D]is that doesn't pay
And [G]writin' words that no one's gonna
[A]see but did you said it? Who said [G]it?

[Verse 4]
I can read my [G]fortune in
the [D]bottom of a glass
And [A]I can see it's time for me
[D]to make my last request
Won't you [G]fill my grave with whiskey
when I'm [D]laid away to rest
So [A]the boys can say I drank
myself to dead
[D]

[Verse 5]
Well, I drank the whole thing over
puttin' [G]one and two together
And it [A]added up to more of
what I [G]didn't want to [D]be
I ain't blamin' Music City but
it's [G]only gonna see me
One [A]more day and the wake up and
the [G]time it takes to leave
[D]

[Verse 6]
'Cause I [G]got a dirty picture of
what could have been my future
In a [D]prophet pushin' day dreams
on a [E]corner for a [A]fee
And [D]the wino lookin' lonely
at a [G]bottle gettin' empty
And a [A]hungry lookin' junkie
huntin' [G]tea in sympath[D]y

[Verse 7]
And I [G]bet that junkie's laughin' after
the [D]life he threw away
Slowly [A]smokin' himself broke on
eighty ci[D]garettes a day
[G]Pleadin' down the prophet to
a [D]price that he can pay
And [G]writin' words that no one's gonna
[A]see but did you said it? Who said it?

[Verse 8]
[G]Every empty bottle is my
[D]private crystal ball
And [A]starin' into the future,
findin' noth[D]in' there at all
Which is [G]what I'll miss tomorrow
when the [D]neon shadows fall
On the [A]junkie and the juicehead minus me
[D]
