Verse 1:
              C
Why don't you go ahead and grab your shovel

Finish that beer and grab another
C                              G
Get your ass outside and dig a hole?

You're never, ever home, and when you are
                                     G
What was once a happy home becomes a bar

Why don't you get your ass outside and dig a hole?

Find your bottle if you're able

Drink your ass under the table
               C                G               C
The whole damn thing has gone unstable like you are

This headache's gonna break my heart

The hand brake broke and the truck won't start
              C                      G          C
You've got me playing the dead man's card, dear Lord

Chorus:
       F                              C
You're never, ever home, and when you are
                                     G
