♫ Verse 1:
E
Rattlesnake morning
E
And the ceiling fan's a-buzzing
E
Fly up on my face
E

I'm too sick to move a muscle
A
And the shower's in the next room
A                    E
Feels like a mile away
B7
Oh God, today's the thirty-first
A                          E     B7
I gotta get the water bill paid


♫ Verse 2:
E
I bought a '67 Lincoln
E
Suicide doors

Got that Posi truck transmission
E
Four on the floor
A
I'm gonna hook up to the  water horse
A                  E
Hit them in the UPIA
B7
I ain't-a roper by no means
A                              E     B7
But I gotta get the water bill paid


♫ Chorus:
A                   E
And I'm on high hopes
B7                                        E
You ain't livin' 'less you're livin' life broke
A                   E
Workin' on high hopes
B7
Too late, too long
A                                     E      B7
Just party through the pain and carry on


♫ Verse 3:
E
I broke an axle in Bandera
E
Nearly lost the trailer
E
I mechanic on the side
E
But rarely turns out right
A
I'd call some help if I could see straight
A                            E
Looks like I'm sleeping here tonight
B7
But this is mountain lion country
A                              E        B7
And I hear they love a redhead delight

Workin' on high hopes

Just party through the pain and carry on
