Verse
C           G                 D
Pour me up a drink, there's a bottle in the seat
Em           D                 C
I'm only half way to crazy by now
       C                  G       D
We are past that breaking point, past that road of choice
          Em             D            C
And there ain't nothing left in this town
             Em           D             C
I thought by now I woulda figured shit out
Verse
Em       D             C        G
You and me we got some bad reputations
    Em               D             C
We dance round like thieves in the night
Em          D                   C        G
I bet your halo could use some reconsideration
              Em              D            C
But it's the only thing that makes this alright
Chorus
       Em                D
Heaven knows time ain't slowing down
     C              G           D                
Yeah we still kick around our same ol' stomping grounds
     Em           D
And life, it'll pass you by
    C                         G              D             
As you drink all through the night under a Houston county sky

Verse
    C            G            D
So roll me up a smoke, I'll take a toke for hope
          Em         D      C
I'm only half way to 80 by now
    C                G           D
You was the peanut queen, I was 17 and mean
           Em         D          C
You wanted so bad to leave this town
          Em           D         C
Ain't it funny how it all works out
Verse
Em             D               C                G
Ain't nothing left but making love and raising babies
        Em             D                   C
There ain't nothing wrong with the simple life
Em              D                  C               G
Hey darling, I love you, but the smoke is getting hazy
      Em              D              C
Maybe we should just get drunk and fight
            Em       D          C
Down at the Gin on a Saturday night
Chorus
       Em                D
Heaven knows time ain't slowing down
     C              G           D                
Yeah we still kick around our same ol' stomping grounds
     Em           D
And life, it'll pass you by
    C                         G              D             
As you drink all through the night under a Houston county sky
