[Verse]

     Dm                            
Old mechanic man's waiting for an
  Bb           F         C
 '85 Chevy to break down
           Dm                
Turn that engine light off so 
Bb 
he can keep 
             F       C
the ones at home on
    Dm              Bb                 
Bartender needs to pour a drink for a 
 F                 C
lonely soul by an empty seat
 Bb                                     
This guitar needs my wondering heart to 
 C
sing his song
 
 
[Chorus]

      Bb                C        
Like headaches need hangovers and 
 F
gypsies need a road
 Bb              C                
Cussin' needs a tongue to talk and 
       F
these cigarettes need smoke

To keep this world spinnin' and

[Verse]

                   Dm         
It wouldn't be an extra ten in 
     Bb 
the plate while 
               F      C
thе choir was singing 
          Dm             Bb   
And that extra piece of brеad, 
                  F        C
it wouldn't need breaking
      Dm          Bb                 
If I woulda just walked away from a 
 F                 C
whiskey shot in a desperate place
   Bb                    
I wouldn't be back here, 
                   C
hard as I can and praying
 
 
[Chorus]

Like headaches need hangovers and 
 F

Cussin' needs a tongue to talk and 
       F
these cigarettes need smoke
    Bb              C           
To keep this world spinnin' and 
 F               Dm      Dm
sinners in them seats

[Bridge]

          Dm         C
If there wasn't any wrong to right
      F              Bb
Then why would we believe
 
    Bb             C
So preachers need people
 
 
[Chorus]

      Dm                C        
Like headaches need hangovers and 
 F
gypsies need a road
 Bb              C                
Cussin' needs a tongue to talk and 
       F
these cigarettes need smoke
    Bb              C           
To keep this world spinnin' and 
 F               Dm       Dm
sinners in them seats
