F  (A)                  C (E) 
My mom laid me on a blanket 
Am (C#m)                    G (B) 
wiped the dust right off my face 
F                                  C 
asked the nurse is he gonna make it? 
Am                               G 
I was cold and I was scared and naked 
F                                   C 
She carried me until I broke her back 
Am                                  G 
I took her shoes and lowered my hat 
Am                                  G 
to block the light of a single moon 


C   (E)       B/C  (B)      Am (C#m) 
I count the stars and wonder how I  
F  (A) 
ever fell this far. My 
C/E     B/C    Am                F 
cigarette sparkles to the ground.  

I burn another down. 

F                                 C 
I saddle broke a wild scapegoat and 
Am                           G 
hid the shoes I stole 
F                                      C 
when the winter nights turned cold 
Am                                     G 
them shoes would have warmed my toes 


F                                        C 
made it down to Tennessee where I 
Am                                       G 
found some friends to carry me 
Am                                       G 
I hear their backbones creak 

 

C   (E)       B/C  (B)      Am (C#m) 
I count the stars and wonder how I  
F  (A) 
ever fell this far. My 
C/E     B/C    Am                F 
cigarette sparkles to the ground.  

I burn another down.
