E    B7        E 
As I watch the sun 
    A        G           E 
Set slowly I hold back a tear 
    A       G        E 
And I can't help but wonder 
        B7                 E 
Why the Lord had to put me here 
 

     A                    E  
As I raise hell all night long 
         B7                 E 
And I've seen a good man go wrong 
    A                    G      E  
And I can't help the way that I am 
          B7                                    E 
Cause the whiskey weed and women have the upper hand  
 
 
       E           B7               E 
Livin' lonely is a life that I been livin' 
  E                 B7                E 
And I got drunk the day my pa went to prison 
     A                               G          E 
And when my momma died I just didn't care about livin' 
      B7                                           E 
And I drank myself blind just tryin' to find a good reason 
 
 
Chorus 
 
Yea, the whiskey weed and women have the upper hand
