[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Livin' [D]beyond my means,
don't know [G]how I'm gonna get [D]by
Livin' beyond my means,
[A]don't ya know a man's got [D]to try
Don't know how it started,
all I [G]know is it's got to end
[D]I've got a noose around my neck
[A]and I don't know why[D]
[A]

[Verse 2]
[D]I followed you to Detroit City then
[G]down to New Orl[D]eans
Trail after trail with nothing but
[A]a bottle of too old [D]gin
Don't know where you lead me
all I [G]know is I've got to go
Gotta [D]find you babe,
[A]before I'm too old[D]
[A]

[Verse 3]
[A][Chorus]
Livin' beyond my [G]means
With all these lov[D]ing you things
[A]Don't know how I'll get [G]by

[Verse 4]
Lord help me try
[D]Do you remember that night in
[G]Dallas when you stole my heart
[D]I didn't put up a fight just
[A]to find me one more [D]start
Now it's taken me out of my home
and put [G]me out on [D]the street
This loving you [A]thing has got me

[G]I[D][A][G][D]
[A]cal[G]led[D] your name in
Boston where I [G]thought that you might [D]be
On my way back to Texas I took a long

This wild turkey chase,

I guess [D]it's best [A]to quit
when you're behind
