VERSE:
C                           G
  I've got a very troubled mind
C
  Ten feet to go
F
  Ten feet behind
C                   G
  I know I give my time
              F        G        C
  But it's a long way down the line
G                       C
  Lately I'm scared of being alive
               F       C              G
  I've got my own dog barkin' when I walk inside
G                           C
  Though what's the use of holding my pride
             F       C
  I've only got one shot
      G
  At being alive


CHORUS:
             F          C
  I'm in some head high water
F         C
  Whiskey wallow
F           C          G
  I told my father I'd carry on his name
         F         C
  With my sons and daughters
F            C
  Raise them taller
F                C                G
  And I hang my head beneath the tin roof rain
            F
  When I get through
G                C
  These fur coat blues


VERSE 2:
I though awhile 'bout what to do 
I had me a case of them fur coat blues 
But that ain't nothin' new 
I've been here a time or two 
Lately I'm scared of being alive 
I've got this hesitation and it's running wild 
But what's the use of living in doubt 
I've only got one shot 
Till my time runs out 


CHORUS:
I'm in some head high water 
Whiskey water 
I told my father I'd carry on his name 
With my sons and daughters 
Raise them taller(?) 
And I hang my head beneath the tin roof rain 
When I get through 
These fur coat blues 
When I get through 
These fur coat blues
