Life Of Sin Chords & Lyrics Artist: Sturgill Simpson

VERSE 1
 
E                                      B7
Lately things have been a little complicated 
B7                         E
Quality of life has got me down 
E                                          B7
Well, the sex is cheap and the talk is overrated 
B7                                       E
And the boys and me still working on the sound 
 
 
VERSE 2
 
E                                            B7
A little happiness, a little love was all I wanted 
B7                                           E
Sure as Hell thought I'd found it but I was wrong 
E                                        A
She left my heart feeling taunted and my memories all haunted 
         E             B7               E
But it's her I have to thank for all my songs 
 
 
CHORUS
 
E                A
So every day I'm smoking my brain hazy 
E
All I can do to keep from going crazy 
E                                    B7
But the paranoia is slowly creeping in 
B7     A
I keep drinking myself silly 
A    E
Only way for this hillbilly 
E                   B7                E
And I thank God for this here life of sin 
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL

BRIDGE
 
B7
Every morning when I rise I look in the mirror and despise 
E                                         A
the sight of everything and all that I've become 
B7
The level of my medicating some might find intimidating 
B7
But that's alright 'cause it don't bother me none
