I've been stuck in Bm/A key a lot lately. Basically country chords shifted up to jam with fiddlers. It's, as usual, another shallowly written song, but I kinda like how the words wrap around the melody.

3/4

with a [Bm]bottle of whiskey
or [A]maybe it was gin
that was [Em]when i found out
[Bm]nobody wins

i was [Bm]happy
cause it [A]meant i could quit
i could [Em]pack up my things
and stop [Bm]givin' a shit

and ya [Bm]know what ah'd do
i [A]kicked off my shoes
i [Em]grabbed my guitar
started [Bm]singin' the blues

chorus
(voice an octive down)
i sang [Bm]waaaaaay
hayee [A]ooooooh
i'm a [Em]cowboy
i'ma [Bm]hit this road

so i [Bm]got me this dog
and a [A]rope for a leash
and i [Em]said lissen boy
there ain't [Bm]nothin' I can teach ya

so [Bm]fetch me a beer
or [A]get out of my way
i'ma [Em]walk through these hills
watch [Bm]the night turn to day

repeat chorus

i got [Bm]hungry
my [A]stomach in pain
so i [Em]stole some food
and [Bm]hid in the rain

i been [Bm]lyin' and cheatin'
i [A]threaten'd good men
they [Em]threw me in jail
where i [Bm]count all my sins

(normal voice)
i sing [Bm]waaaaaay
hayee [A]ooooooh
i'm a [Em]cowboy
got [Bm]nowhere to go
