tabbed by pooch831 For the verses he strums the G and noodles around on it, it's a simple song. G I went back to the corner store To buy another round I found a penny gone and picked it up But it was faced head down I represent all that?s wrong And I resent the law Cat tail below my rocking chair I learned to spit before I could crawl D G A I think I need a hit of morphine D G A Just enough to ease my troubled mind D G A If I die a simple man of patience D G A Lord, I'll be fine, yeah? yes, I'll be fine
G I went down to the river side To sober up and rest my head I got drunk there and stayed all day Hooking bait without a catch I never thought much on God before And I'll be gone before long I asked him why he went and sent me here To stink and reek upon all D G A They say another drink might kill me D G A But that?s god?s will, yeah, it's my time D G A If I die a simple man of patience D G A Lord, I'll be fine, yeah? yes, I'll be fine D G A I think I need a hit of morphine D G A Just enough to ease my troubled mind D G A If I die a simple man of patience D G A Lord, I'll be fine, yeah? yes, I'll be fine
