Verse 1
Well, I re[Am]remember what you [G6add11]told me, you said d[F]drinking was unholy
So [Am]Lord, can you [G6add11]point me to the [F]creek

And through [Am]unfavored [G6add11]weather, and [F]holes in the leather

I'm still [Am]praying to the [G6add11]heavens, and [F]hoping for them sevens
But [Am]hope only [G6add11]gets a man so[F]so far

And they say pressure makes diamonds, how the hell am I still coal?

It's [Am]tough tryna [G6add11]land on my[F]my feet

Bridge
And every [Am]day it's getting [G6add11]colder since that [F]day in October
When you [Am]told me it was [G6add11]over so I [F]left

Tryna find a four leaf clover get me out of this mess
