E                    B7 
Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'  
         A          Gm            E   
And I've done a lot of hard, hard livin' 
E                      B7 
Livin' on the road and seein' how it goes  
  A       Gm          E 
I grew up fast and it shows  


      B7                      A         E   
Cause livin' the nightlife is where I belong  
    B7                           A                E  
And drinkin' with the drunks who don't want to go home  
         E 
And it's hard, it's rough but I can't quite get enough  
       B7                    E 
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can  
E B7 A Gm E x 2  
Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'  

And I've had my share of good women 

I once had a good home, a wife to call my own 

But now I'm here drunk and alone 
 
Chorus  
       B7                    A   Gm   E 
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can
