While the World Goes Down the Drain Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]
[A]

[Verse 1]
Some [Am]kids grew up
on [A]mean streets
Dealin' with the [Am]crips and bloods
But me I was born on a [A]back road
In [G]a 4[D]X4 rollin' through the m[Am]ud

[Verse 2]
The street kid deals with the [Am]deal[A]er
And he's [Am]always watchin' [A]his back
Me, I'm watch[Am]in' a line,
with a woman [A]of mine
[G]Down by the [D]creek bank [A]shack[Am]

[Verse 3]
Give [A]me a .308 and a [Am]shotgun
And a [C]gallon [D]of homemade [A]wine
[Am]Drop me off on a mountain[A]side
Where the [E]bear and the deer reside
I'll [G]spend my nights
sittin' [D]round the fire
[G]Makin' this [D]guitar [A]ring
[Am]I'll be doin[A]' fine underneath
the pines
While the [E]world goes down
[Am]the drain
[A][Am]

[Verse 4]
[A]
Just to [Am]dwell on life in the [A]city
Is makin' my [Am]blood run cold
'Cause miles [A]and miles of concrete
Eats [G]away at the [D]human [A]soul

[Verse 5]
When you live and die [A]in the
country
There's a little that your
heart [Am]can mourn
With your hands in the [A]dirt
and a little work
You can [G]weather [D]out [A]any storm[Am]
[A]Give me

[Verse 6]
a .308 and a shotgun
And a [C]gallon [D]of homemade [A]wine[Am]
Drop me off on a [A]mountainside
Where the [E]bear and the deer reside
I'll [G]spend my nights sittin'
[D]round the fire
[G]Makin' this [D]guitar [A]ring[Am]
I'll be [A]doin' fine underneath the pines
While the [E]world goes down the drain

[Interlude 1]

[A]
[C]I'll

[Verse 7]
[Am]be d[A]oin'[E][G][D][G][D]
[A]fine underneath the pines
While the [E]world goes [Am]down[A]
[E]the [Am]drain
