Capo 1st fret
CI've been under the motor, she's losing oil
Running on lies and alcohol
FI'm going, boys CI'm going
AmSoon as we're done, Fwe're pulling dowCn the ride
AmAs soon as we're done, Gpulling down thCe ride.
CI ain't standing you no more rounds
No more stuffing your pockets with pounds
FI'm going, boys CI'm going
AmSoon as we're done, wFe're pulling doCwn the ride
AmAs soon as we're donGe, pulling down Cthe ride.
Am Bb B C
CWell, I've fixed a fuse now the brakes won't budge
I'm laid down tired, sober as a judge
FI'm going, boys CI'm going
AmSoon as we're done, Fwe're pulling dowCn the ride
AmAs soon as we're done, Gpulling down thCe ride.
Am Bb B C
FI tried looking in the mirror
Seeing those cars bCehind
DYes and all these towns
GNothing but a hard old ground.
CIf you're done, I'll never need
I won't worry, I won't greave
FI'm going, boys CI'm going
AmSoon as we're done, wFe're pulling down tChe ride
AmAs soon as we're doneG, pulling down the Cride. 
AmSoon as we're done, wFe're pulling down tChe ride
AmAs soon as we're doneG, pulling down the Cride.
