Waiting Around To Die by The Be Good Tanyas
Waiting Around To Die
CAPO 3
Em Am
Sometimes I don't even know where this dusty road is taking me
Em B
Sometimes I don't even know the reason why
Em
But I figure I'll keep on ramblin'
Am
Lots of booze and lots of gamblin'
Em B Em
It's easier than just waitin around to die.
Once I had a Ma, I even had a Pa
He hit her with a belt once 'cause she cried
She told him to take care of me
Headed back to Tennessee
It was easier 'n just waitin around to die.
I came of age and I met a girl
in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and hid it on the sly
I tried to kill the pain
I bought some wine and hopped a train
It was easier than just waiting around to die
My friend said he knew where some easy money was
We robbed a man and brother did we fly
The police caught up with me
drug me back to muskogee
Now it's two long years of waitng around to die.
Now I'm out of prison
I got me a friend at last
He don't drink, or cheat, or steal, or lie
His name's codeine
he's the finest thing I've seen
and together we're gonna wait around to die.

Am Dm
Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Am E
Sometimes can't even see the reason why
Am Dm
I guess I keep a-gamblin', lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
Am E Am
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
Am Dm
One time, friends, I had a Ma, I even had a Pa
Am E
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
Am Dm
She told him to take care of me, headed down to Tennessee
Am E Am
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
Am Dm
I came of age and I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
Am E
She cleaned me out and hit in on the sly
Am Dm
I tried to kill the pain, bought some wine and hopped a train
Am E Am
Seemed easier than just waitin' around to die
Am Dm
A friend said he knew where some easy money was
Am E
We robbed a man, and brother did we fly
Am Dm
The posse caught up with me and drug me back to Muskogee
Am E Am
It's two long years I've been waitin' around to die
Am Dm
Now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
Am E
He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
Am Dm
His name's Codine, he's the nicest thing I've seen
Am E Am
Together we're gonna wait around and die
