Hot wAind blowing smoke through gGraveyard strAeets
A faGce I recognDize staring bGack through Ame

Work that ground til I dGone got sore,                                              D  
Aint going back down to the Awell
PlayeAd that dive twenty sGome odd yeAars
Through the faGith and the whDiskey, you fGace your fAears
I remembeAr the night you broke dGown to the cDore,

Mud colored dogs guarding shot gun shacks,

G D G A

Red door on the green Cadillac

Hot wind blowing smoke through graveyard streets

G D G A

A face I recognize staring back through me

G D A

Aint going down to the well no more, Believe I had my fill

Work that ground til I done got sore,

Aint going back down to the well

Played that dive twenty some odd years

G D G A

Through the faith and the whiskey, you face your fears

A G D

I remember the night you broke down to the core,

G D G A

You threw a black Stratocaster through a plate glass door

G D A

Aint going down to the well no more, Believe I had my fill

Gonna work that ground til I done got sore,

Aint going back down to the well

G D G A

Whats she doing at night watching me that way

Aint going down to the well no more, believe I had my fill
