Chords for Tyler Childers - Peace of Mind

_ I roamed with a bunch of boys from Pineville when I [D] was in Lexington.
_ _ [N] _ _ One of my roommates had an older brother.
His older brother was absolutely insane.
He was one of the wildest individuals.
Turned the family man that I've ever met.
But he was [Am] holding it together by a thread.
The [Bb] thread was his wife [Gbm] and his stepdaughter.
But he [C] had lived in Lexington for a little [Bm] while.
If you asked _ [N]
his dad to this day how many college credit hours he has,
he's like, oh, I just got one more year.
[Abm] _ _ And I don't have a [N] degree.
That's not the case.
He took all the money he was supposed to put into college
and he put it into pre-workout [Am] and [D] training.
And he was a competitive bodybuilder for [Am] three years.
_ [N] _
And he got married and he went to the railroad.
And he had to quit smoking marijuana.
And every time that we ever [G] hung out, yeah.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ [Fm] [G] Every _ [E] time we ever hung out, he [N] would always tell the boys,
I got this many more years and I'm going to enroll me a big old fatty.
_ So _ that's where this song started.
[Am] _ All right.
_ [N]
But it doesn't start in that key.
So mind you, this is new.
I played this for two people.
[Gb] _ _ _ [B] And now I play it for [Bb] one. _
So [B] if it doesn't work out, we're going to do [N] something absolutely different
and act like it never [Bb] happened. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Eb] _ [C] _
_ [Ab] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Fm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Woo!
He's been smoking marijuana at the railroad [Bb] for a long and lonesome while.
But the day that he retires, [F] he will smoke himself to chile.
[C] He will leave behind his worries as he's [Eb] racing [F] through the sky.
_ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Fm] _ [C] _
[Fm] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ That's the salesman on two buddies.
Saves a little money on the makeup she's been using.
To hide away the [C] years.
And she sits and watches [Ab] TV.
[C] _
Usually every evening.
If there ain't some kind of ball [Eb] game, [F] her daughter has to cheer.
She sneaks men's balls in the morning while her family's still snoring.
And as she burns the eggo, [Bb] she looks back at her life.
That heart she broke in high [F] school, he is singing on the offer.
[Cm] [C] She wonders what the hell she was [Eb] thinking at [F] the time.
[Eb] Oh, the [Bb] days are dark down [F] in the holler.
_ [C] Waiting for the [F] sun to shine.
_ [Bb] On the back, [F] you've been breaking.
_ [Ab] Trying [C] to earn [Ab] a piece [F] of mind.
_ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Ab] _ [C] _
_ [Fm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Eb] _ [C] _
_ _ [A] _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Her very young daughter Stella, she's been running with this fella.
That he cannot stand the thought of.
That he surely does [C] despise.
He's told her he'd best never see the two of them together.
But it's hard to keep an [Fm] eye on [F] her when you're working all the time.
There are things he needs to tend to.
And the bills the bank keeps sending.
For the zeros on the end [Eb] keep pushing [Bb] further to the right.
Like a freight train hauling [Fm] sorrow [F] and moving ever [Ab] onward.
[C] Through the tunnel of forever towards a never [Eb] [F] ending light.
Oh, the [Bb] days are dark down [F] in the holler.
[Cm] [C] Waiting for [Eb] the [F] sun to shine.
_ [Bb] On the back, _ [F] you've been breaking.
[C] Trying to earn a [F] piece of mind.
[Ab] Trying [C] to earn a [Fm] piece [F] of mind. _ _
