Die Alone

Intro: F C    F C 



F              C 
I lost one too many bets 
F                 C 
Stayed up smokin' cigarettes 
F               C              G 
All tuned up on bottom shelf relief 
F                 C 
Whiskey waltzing 'round the room 
F               C 
Hopeful just to get back soon 
F              C              G 
Spirits gently lay me down to sleep 
F               C 
No one cares to hear a man 
F                  C 
So damn drunk that he can't stand 
F               C                    G 
Cryin' bout the things that he can't change 


 
F             C 
Diesel engine mausoleum 
F                    C 
Friends are here but I don't see 'em 
F                 C             G 
Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain 


 
Am                F            C 
If I'm goin', I’m goin' out my own way 
Am                F               G 
Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again 
         Am       G       C 
When the bus gets back to Greenville 
F      Am    C 
I'll already be back home 
  Am                    G                C 
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone 


Interlude: 
F G C 


 
        F              C 
Crossed every line but saved a few 
   F                 C 
So I could have some more to do 
   F                 C             G 
To keep me from ever really comin' down 
   F             C 
So highway carry me away 
F                C 
I got bills I've got to pay 
  F                  C                G 
I swear I'll give my all to this next town 
F              C 
Could I die on stage tonight 
F             C 
Just to be in your spotlight 
F                C               G 
You could see me let the whiskey drown 


F             C 
Diesel engine mausoleum 
F                    C 
Friends are here but I don't see 'em 
F                 C             G 
Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain 


Am                F            C 
If I'm goin', I’m goin' out my own way 
Am                F               G 
Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again 
         Am       G       C 
When the bus gets back to Greenville 
F      Am    C 
I'll already be back home 
  Am                    G                C 
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone 
  Am                    G                C 
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone
