Eit don't do me no good
EI didn't think that it would
'cause you're not mAine
you might have C#mseen me but Bi kept on driving bAy
going to C#mlose myself on sBome dark road toniAght
'cause there's someEthing 'bout just Blaying down and Ataking all that paiEn

E'cause half a tBank of gAas will get me far enEough
Eto be completely Blost by the Atime the sun comes Eup

Eto be completely Blost by the Atime the sun comes Eup
and there ain't nC#mothing left foBr me in TenAnessee

Lucero - It Gets Worse At Night

E A

(3 bars) - (1 bar)

it gets the worst at night

with nothing on my mind

but you

I'm thinking too damn much

I go ahead and get up

and put on my boots

C#m B A

so I can drive as far as i can get from you

on my way out of town

i drive by your house

two times

it don't do me no good

I didn't think that it would

'cause you're not mine

C#m B A

you might have seen me but i kept on driving by

C#m B A

going to lose myself on some dark road tonight

E B A E

'cause there's something 'bout just laying down and taking all that pain

E B A

I'd rather drive all night, if it's all the same

E B A E

'cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough

E B A E

to be completely lost by the time the sun comes up

(3 bars) - A (1 bar)

and so it's four a.m.

I'm on the road again

to find some peace

some old gravel road

god only knows

there's nothing for me

C#m B A

and there ain't nothing left for me in Tennessee

C#m B A

because I know you're not awake thinking of me

E B A E

'cause there's something 'bout just laying down and taking all that pain

E B A

I'd rather drive all night, if it's all the same

E B A E

'cause half a tank of gas will get me far enough

E B A E

to be completely lost by the time the sun comes up

C#m B A

and there ain't nothing left for me in Tennessee

C#m B A

because I know you're not awake thinking of me
