E5                    B5 
Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'  
         A5          G5            E5   
And I've done a lot of hard, hard livin' 
E5                      B5 
Livin' on the road and seein' how it goes  
  A5       G5          E5 
I grew up fast and it shows  


      B5                      A5         E5   
Cause livin' the nightlife is where I belong  
    B5                           A5                E5  
And drinkin' with the drunks who don't want to go home  
         E5 
And it's hard, it's rough but I can't quite get enough  
       B5                    E5 
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can  
E5 B5 A5 G5 E5 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  
       B5                    A5   G5   E5 
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can
