"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 didnt lay me no jive
D A B E
Made me happy just to wake up, wake up alive (pause)

On the highway to my work drivin 85
Dont pay much mind to the will to survive
Not singing your particular song in my head
Im dreaming about rolling back in your warm bed
(chorus)
A D A
Might coulda been different coulda woke up dead
E B E
I wouldnt a had to listen to that stuff what you said
A D A
Might coulda been paying your bills instead
D A B (intro) E B E BE
Im gonna celebrate one more life in debt (sp) I guess I owe you one small debt
Solo
Been around a long time I got no regrets
Cept I never got to you can I ever forget
What trouble Im missing with you solid gone
Guess I got to find another way to carry on (pause)

If 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 break that stride
Make you happy just to wake up alive

A E A E
How come Im poking round n round
E B E
With this one and that one in the same old town
A D A D A B
You better go figure whos doing my stuff Whos beatin you to the punch
(intro) / (chorus)
