Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Daddy was a [D]gambler
Back [C]in seventy-two
He He had [G]a taste for
the nightlife and [Bb]he
Loved his [C]booze
He had [D]a woman on one arm
And [C]a tattoo on the other
It was [G]hard to read I don't know
what it [Bb]said
[C]Somethin' about my mother
[D]

[Verse 2]
I stood over his shoulder
back [C]in Bakersfield
He had [G]some rhinestone boots with
[Bb]those high ridin' [C]heels
He [D]bet a ton of money
On [C]a hand I thought was dead
[G]When those sevens
cleaned the table [Bb]up
He just [C]looked around and said
[D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Sometimes you win
[D]Sometimes you won't
[A]Sometimes you beat that devil
[D]Sometimes you don[G]'t
We're all just killin' time
Til [D]the good Lord calls us home
And [C]the best that you can
[G]hope for is to [Bb]die[C]
With your [D]boots on

[Verse 4]
[D]
I drive a big rig [C]from shore to shore
I've got [G]a woman beside me
And my [Bb]name out on [C]the door
[D]Can't make no money
If [C]I don't outrun the man
That's [G]why you find me streakin'
through [Bb]the night
[C]Catch me if you [D]can

[Verse 5]
[G]Sometimes you win
[D]Sometimes you won't
[A]Sometimes you beat that devil
[D]Sometimes you don[G]'t
We're all just killin' time
Til [D]the good Lord calls us home
And [C]the best that you can
[G]hope for is to die
[Bb][C]

[Verse 6]
[G]Sometimes you win
[D]Sometimes you won't
[A]Sometimes you outrun that devil
[D]Sometimes you don[G]'t

Til [D]the good Lord calls us [Bm]home
And the [C]best that you can
[G]hope for is [Bb]to die[C]
[D]With your boots on
