Strum pattern is down, down, up, up, down, up
Standard Tuning
This is a good song enjoy!
Nine years old and I skinned my knees
They told me I d be fine
Told me I d be fine
And the very next day I died
I loved a girl with a cold cold heart
Lord how I did pine
Lord how I did pine
And the very next day I died
I graduated and I found a job
That paid me over-time
They paid me over-time
And the very next day I died
I found true love and I married rich
Then tears of joy I cried
Then tears of joy I cried
And the very next day I died
We bought a new house in the country
Straight off the assembly line
Straight off the assembly line
And the very next day I died.
Spoiled our kids rotten
Traded my whiskey in for wine
My whiskey in for wine
And the very next day I died
Then she left me for my brother
Said he s gonna keep her satisfied
Gonna keep her satisfied
And the very next day I died
So I banged my fists on a coffin
Sayin lord it aint my time
Lord it aint my time
And the very next day I died
Now im at the pearly gates
Waiting in a long long line
Waiting in a long long line
(hold)
And I hope one day im gonna die
