Intro:
C G F C
C G F C



C                                 G             
Well it's been 10 years and a
F					C
thousand tears and look at the mess I'm in

C                           G              
A broken nose and a broken 
F		                  C
heart and an empty bottle of gin

C                    G       
Well I sit and I pray, 
F		C
in my broken down Chevrolet...

C                      G             
and I'm singing to myself, 
F			C
there's got to be another way



Chorus

C                 G         
Take away, take away, 
F			C
take away this ball and chain,

C                         G            
cause I'm sick and I'm tired, 
F			C
and I can't take anymore pain,




C                G           
Take away, take away, 
F		C
never to return again

C                 G   	F
Take away, take away, take away, hey....  
C	       G		F
Take away this ball and chain



Well I've searched, and I've searched, to find the perfect life

A brand new car, and a brand new suit, I even got me a little wife

But wherever I have gone, I was sure to find myself there

You can run all your life, but not go anywhere


Chorus


I passed the bar on the way, to my dingy hotel room

I spent all of my money, I been drinkin since half passed noon

Well I'll wake there in the morning, or maybe in the county jail

Times are hard, getting harder, I'm born to lose, and destined to fail


Chorus
