Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]It's [C]6 05 on
Sunday [G]mornin'
And I was supposed to've left
for Mem[C]phis late last [G]night
But I stopped at one of [C]them
old highway [G]places
And 'cause I did I'll [C]sleep in Tar
[D]ren County Jail tonight
[G]

[Verse 2]
Well I started out tonight
[C]with good intentio[G]ns
But I ended up gettin' [C]side
ways drinkin' [G]wine
Well the last thing I remem
[C]ber we was rol[G]lin'
And something hit my [C]head and knocked
me [D]from my conscious [G]mind

[Verse 3]
[G]And I'm a [D]victim of life's
circum[G]stances
Well I was [A]raised around bar rooms
[D]and Friday night dances
[C]Singin' them old country songs[G]
And half the time [C]ending up
some [D]place I don't belong
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]I[G][C]
[G][C][G][C]
[D]sai[G]d, "Jailor, hey,
[C]what y'all got me [G]charged with?"
Well he looked at me and
[C]halfway closed one [G]eye
Well he said, "To mean to say
[C]you don't rem[G]ember
Cuttin' up [C]some fool with
that [D]bone handled knife?"

[Verse 5]
[G]And I'm a vic[D]tim of life's
circum[G]stances
Well I was [A]raised around bar rooms
[D]and Friday night dances
[C]Singin' them old country son[G]gs
And half the time [C]ending up
some [D]place I don't belong

[Verse 6]
[G]And I'm a victim of
life's circumstances
Well I was raised around bar rooms
and Friday night dances
Singin' them old country songs
And half [C]the time ending up
some [D]place I don't belong
[G][D][G][D][G]
