None of them

F
MY POCKETS ARE EMPTY THOUGH MY WIFE HAS SENT ME
Bb
TO THE STORE FOR SOME CIGARETTES AND BREAD
F
I STARTED WALKIN' THERE GOT AS FAR AS THE SQUARE
C
THEN THE SMELL OF BEER WENT TO MY HEAD
F
THE THING ABOUT BEER, IT CAN MAKE A MAN HEAR
Bb
VOICES FROM DAYS LONG SINCE PAST
F C
AND WITH EVERY THIRD DRINK IT'LL MAKE YOU THINK
Bb C
THAT YOUR YOUTH WILL ALWAYS LAST
Bb
NO MATTER WHICH WAY YOU MOVE
F C
IT TAKES A LIFETIME TO PROVE TO YOURSELF
Dm
I COULD HAVE BEEN MORE
Bb F C F
I GOT ONE FOOT IN THE DOOR, I JUST WANT ONE MORE
I THOUGHT OF A TIME WHEN MY FUTURE WAS MINE
IT DIDN'T MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAID
I WAS HANDSOME AND STRONG AND WHEN I WALKED ALONG
I STOOD ERECT AND LOOKED STRAIGHT AHEAD
BUT THEN I LOST MY FIGHT, "GOING TO" TURNED TO "MIGHT"
SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE I LOST MY WILL
AND NOW I'M SITTING HERE, MY LIFE FULL OF BEER
AND I TRY TO PRETEND IT'S NOT REAL
CHORUS
SOLO (CHORD CHANGE TO G F=G Bb=C C=D)
THESE DAYS I BARELY SURVIVE ON LOT NUMBER FIVE
IN THE MOBILE ACRES ON THE EASTSIDE OF TOWN
I SWORE THIS KIND OF LIFE I'D NEVER LEAD
I GUESS I LET TOO MANY THINGS GET ME DOWN
IF MY PAPPY COULD SEE WHAT THEY DONE TO ME
I SWEAR HE'D MARCH DOWN THERE AND MAKE IT ALL RIGHT
BUT HE'S LONG SINCE GONE AND I'M OLD ENOUGH NOW
I SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIGHT MY OWN FIGHT
