"Coulda Woke Up Dead"
lyrics
Coulda Woke up Dead E 6/03
(intro) E B E BE (intro)
A E A E
Woke up this morning at a quarter to ten
A E B E
Rememberin Im supposed to go to work again
A E A E
Your daddys so late he didnt lay me no jive
D A B E
Makes me happy just to wake up alive

On the highway to my work Im drivin 85
Not paying much mind, to the will to survive (pause)
I aint singing your particular song in my head
D A B E
Just dreaming about rolling back in your warm bed (pause)
(chorus) A D A
Might coulda been different coulda woke up dead
E B E
I wouldnt a had to listen to what your daddy said
A D A
Might coulda been paying your bills instead
D A B (intro) E B E BE
Were gonna celebrate one more life, in debt (sp) guess I owe your daddy one debt
Solo
Been around a long time I got no regrets
Cept I never could get you offa track bettin
What trouble Im missing my monies all gone
Guess Ill hafta find another way to carry on (pause)

If the you like driving me to work that much
You can do it yourself Ill let you pop the clutch
Maybe one of these days youll quit all that viceing
Make you happy just to wake up alive

A D A
Whys your daddy been a poking round and round
E B E
trying this one and that one up on my end of town
A D A D A B
He done figured whos doing your stuff Hes beatin you to the punch
