[Intro]
Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am They're servin' time so
Em
I can get long gone, yeah [Verse]
Em Jack's got a rap sheet
G
a country mile long Am We're thick as thieves,
but he'll leave me Em Still drunk wakin' up on
the neighbor's lawn Em Jose's got a death wish,
G
we've had some crazy nights Am But he's been with me since about '03 Em You could say we're doin' life [Chorus] Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am They're servin' time so
Em
I can get long gone Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am I'll break 'em out and pour
Em
'em up real strong [Verse]
Em I fell out with Jim Beam,
G
but I still see him around Am But I wish him well, But can't take the heck that
Em
he put me through downtown Em G Sometimes an old boy's gotta know
when crap ain't for ya Am Well every time I drinkit might be me
Em
versus the state of Georgia [Chorus]
Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am They're servin' time so
Em
I can get long gone Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am I'll break 'em out and pour
Em
'em up real strong [Instrumental]
Em G
Am Em [Break]
Em Well, I said Jacks's locked up in
G
Lynchburg and Jose's on
parole down south Am Jim's on the run for
shootin' someone and
Em
is hidin' out down in Parkside [Chorus]
Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am They're servin' time so
Em
I can get long gone Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am I'll break 'em out and pour
Em
'em up real strong [Outro]
Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am They're servin' time so
Em
I can get long gone Em G Most of my friends are behind bars Am I'll break 'em out and pour
Em
'em up real strong
