[Intro]
Am  Em  D  C
C   Em  D  C
C   Em  D  C
C   Em  D  C

[Verse]
                Am
We'll take the copper
from the work-site
Em
Meet me here at midnight
D
They ain't got a
            Cmaj7
camera or a guard
C
Write my own prescription
   Em
If I can't get a fix, son
 D                       Cmaj7
Shit's about to get real hard

[Verse]
C
Molly don't believe me
Em
Says she's gonna leave me
     D
The kids won't even
         Cmaj7
know my name
       C
Put a gallon in
the step-side
Em
With a little help
    D
By morning I won't
         Cmaj7
 feel no pain

[Instrument]
Am  Em  D  Cmaj7
C   Em  D  Cmaj7

[Verse]
Am
Never thought I'd wind up
Em
This far behind
        D
Just a couple years
                Cmaj7
 back we had it made

       C
I was emptying my bladder
      Em
On  a 20-ft ladder
             D
Should have climbed down
                      Cmaj7
And found myself some shade

[Verse]
     C
The doctor took
a quick look
    Em
And I got out
 the checkbook
     D
And left with a pocket
         Cmaj7
 full of pills

        C
Now my back's still hurting
        Em
And I'm too weak for working
       D
And I can't keep up
              C
with all the bills

[Chorus]
G
  She used to wake me up
         C
 with cooooffee
        Cmaj7
 every morning
         Em
And I'd hear her homemade
  D           C
 house shoes slide
 across the floor

G
  She used to make me feel
           C          Cmaj7
 like the King of Oklahoma
     Em               D
But nothing makes me feel
               C
 like much of nothing
   Cmaj7
anymore

[Solo]
Am  Em  D  Cmaj7
Cmaj7  Em  D  Cmaj7

[Verse]
m
I was all set up to do it
          Em
But some bastard
beat me to it
         D
Ain't a copper pipe
            Cmaj7
 left on the lot

       C
Got a loan out on the truck
         Em
But I'm running out of luck
         D
And the title is the
             C
 only thing I've got

[Verse]
 C
Molly's gonna leave me
EM
Says she don't believe me
D
I got nothing
             Cmaj7
left to lie about
       C
She's going back to Bixby
Em
Tired of trying to fix me
D                        C
Says I got some shit to figure out

[Chorus]
G
  She used to wake me up
         C             Cmaj7
 with cooooffee every morning
         Em
And I'd hear her homemade
  D           C
 house shoes slide
 across the floor

G
  She used to make me feel
           C          Cmaj7
like the King of Oklahoma
     Em               D
But nothing makes me feel
               C
 like much of nothing anymore

[Chorus]
G
  She used to wake me up with
    C             Cmaj7
 cooooffee every morning
         Em             D
And I'd act like I was sleeping
          C
 'til she walked back
 through the door
G
  She used to make me feel
          C
like the King of Oklahoma
     Em               D
But nothing makes me feel
               C
 like much of nothing
 anymore

[Outro]
Am Em  D  C
C  Em  D  C
C  Em  D  C
C  Em  D  C
