[E]
I was south of North Dakota rolling through the black hills
Hopped up on whiskey and choking down pills
[A] And I was fixed on a score, short on cash
[G] So I [E] robbed a liquor store, bought some [Em] speed and some hash
[B] Then I headed down to Cheyenne, [A] there were bulls to be spurred
But my [E] brother got locked up in Denver, started singing like a bird
[B] So I made it for the coast, it was [A] time to set sail
Cause [E] when it all falls [B] apart, man, it all goes [E] to hell
I'm [A] just living my life, one day at a time
[E] Walking just as a stone out of my mind
[B] It's alright, it's okay, and [A] there ain't nothing to say
Cause [E] I'm already [F#] half [B] dead and got one foot [E] in the grave
You say you're better than me, well [Em] you're probably right
But I'm ranked second by a drunk, had a full fight
I [A] changed my name to Juan Carlos, to sell guns and drugs
Till the [E] CIA got me out my trailer house
But [B] I won't end up dead or alive [A] by the wire, arrest, cartel
And [E] when it all falls apart, man, it all goes to hell
I'm [A] just living my life, one day at a time
[E] Walking just as a stone out of my mind
It's [B] alright, it's okay, and there [A] ain't nothing to say
[E] Cause I'm already half dead and got one foot in the grave
[G] [Am] [A]
[E]
[Bm] [B] [Em] [A]
[Em] So
[B] [E] I lived like Tekashi, then I sold out my friends
Joined witness protection, never heard from again
Unless [A] you're out in West Texas and get thrown in jail
[G] You [E] can dial my number, call Juan Carlos, babe
And [B] don't drop the stuff, [A] cause it never fails
When [E] it all falls apart, man, it all goes to hell
[A] I'm just living my life, one day at a time
[E] Walking just as a stone out of my [B] mind
It's alright, it's okay, and [A] there ain't nothing to say
[E] Cause I'm already half dead and got one foot in the grave
Yeah, it's [B] alright, it's okay, [A] there ain't nothing to say
Cause [G] I'm already half dead and got one foot in [E] the grave
