When it's sung live the second verse is usually left out so I've left it out of this version.

A              D   
Hi buckaroos, Skamp Walker time again
E                                   A
I'm tryin to slide one by you once more
A
Don't matter how you do it
D                                  
Just do it like you know it
E                                        A
I've been down this road once or twice before


Chorus:
A            D               E                A
Just gettin' by on gettin' by's my stock in trade
D                A
Livin it day to day
D                E                   A
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
D                E                A                    D 
Just letting it roll, lettin the high times carry the load
A              E                  A
Just livin my life easy come, easy go

 
A D E A A D E A


Chorus:
A            D               E                A

I'm livin my life easy come, easy go


A                     D                                             
Income tax is overdue, I think she is too
E                                             A      
Been busted and I'll probably get busted some more
                            D                                                      
But I'll catch it all later, can't let em stop me now
E                                       A  
I've been down this road once or twice before


Chorus:
A            D               E                A
