During verses hammer on and off middle and index finger on the E MajorE chord. Also the lyrics are probably not 100%
comment and I will make amendments to the tab.

Capo on 3rd fret


E MajorE                       E MajorE
Early in the morning when the sun does rise
D MajorD         A augmentedA           E MajorE
laying in the bed with blood shot eyes
E MajorE                      E MajorE
late in the evening when the sun sinks low
D MajorD         A augmentedA           E MajorE
well that's about time my rooster crows

E MajorE                       E MajorE
I've got women up and down this creek
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
where to keep me going and my engine clean
E MajorE               E MajorE
run me ragged but I don't fret
D MajorD                  A augmentedA        E MajorE
cause there ain't been nothing slow me down just yet

---

Chorus:

E MajorE
Get me drinking that moonshine
D MajorD          A augmentedA
get me higher than a grocery bill
E MajorE
take my troubles to the high wall
D MajorD            A augmentedA
throw them in the river and get your fill

E MajorE
we been sniffing that cocaine
D MajorD           A augmentedA
and no better feeling when the wind cuts cold
E MajorE
low its mighty hard living
D MajorD            A augmentedA         E MajorE
but a damn good feeling to run these roads

-----
E MajorE                       E MajorE
I got people trying to tell me Red
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
well you keep this living and you wind up dead
E MajorE                       E MajorE
cast your troubles on the lord of lords
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
wind up lying on the cooling board

E MajorE                       E MajorE
but I got buddies up at white house road
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
they keep me strutting when my feet hang low
E MajorE                       E MajorE

D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
and all this running gonna keep me sane

E MajorE                       E MajorE
When they lay me in the cold hard clay
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
singing them hymns while the banjo plays
E MajorE                       E MajorE
tell those ladies that they ought not frown
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
cause there ain't been nothing ever hold me down
E MajorE                       E MajorE
well the lawman, women or a shallow grave
D MajorD           A augmentedA          E MajorE
same old blues just a different day
