Standard (EADGBE)

Day after day after trying to understand
Why the world tries to grind you down, make a ghost out of a man
Your date of grace is due and you've pawned everything you own
ss
I guess some dreams just don't come true, nothin' left but skin and wishbones ||
Each year the world gets lonelier and uglier with sin
You'll never see those blue skies through young eyes again
You've prayed to every god you've known just to wind up all alone
Your friends are gone, your mama's dead, nothin' left but skin and wishbones
Chorus
Spin the bottle cap, throw a shot back
Everything's gonna be all right
Spin the bottle cap, throw a shot back
Cough and cry, Lay down and die
Grab an end, hold on tight
Bottles and bones in the night
You'll never go back home
You old wishbone
Guitar solo
Fiddle solo
Can't eat can't sleep can't think not knowing where to go
This is real life brother, this ain't no reality show
If suffering is human well I guess we're not alone
You'll survive on next to nothing but you won't live on skin and wishbones
Chorus
Repeat 2nd half of chorus
