I Got A Gig Chords

  			
A 
Eight line machine and a sailor's daughter 
A 
Somethin' makes 'em crazy growin' up on the water 
A 
Playin' for my supper six nights a week 
A 
Hurricanes, Easter and New Years Eve 
D 
Four tin walls now there ain't much left 
A 
Lookin' like a homeless Cheers on meth 
D 
Homer's in the corner, breakin' up a fight 
A 
Good Lord, I hope I get paid tonight, I got a gig, baby  

A 
Burnt fried chicken and Lone Star beer 
A 
Cops and the kids drink free 'round here 
A 
Girl behind the bar is takin' what she's givin' 
A 
Lyin' ’bout her past and tryin' to make a livin' 
D 
Broke pool table and some hard luck cues 
A 
Go tell your mama, I done paid my dues 
D 
Everyone 'round here knows my name 
A 
Six nights a week in the Neon Flame, I got a gig, baby 

SOLO 

A 
There's an old lion tamer parked behind the bar 
A 
A hundred pounds of weed in a stolen car 
A 
Oil patch boys and girls who went to college 
A 
Rules you don't break and laws that ain't knowledge 
D 
Barefoot shrimper with a pistol up his sleeve 
A 
Some will go to heaven, some will never leave 
D 
Pills in the tip jar, blood on the strings 
A 
Lord, I never thought I'd see these things, I got a gig, baby
