Hank Williams - I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive guitar chord

I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive

By Hank Williams

Capo 1

F

Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kinda mad

I had lot's of luck but it's all been bad

C7

No matter how I struggle and strive

F

I'll never get out of this world alive

My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand

My woman run away with another man

No matter how I struggle and strive

I'll never get out of this world alive.

Bb F F7

A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch

Bb Bb7

And I was living high until that fatal day

C7

A lawyer proved I wasn't born

I was only hatched

Everything's agin' me and it's got me down

If I jumped in the river I would probably drown

No matter how I struggle and strive

I'll never get out of this world alive

These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time

Are full of holes and nails

And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime

I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails.

I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow

'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright no-how

No matter how I struggle and strive

I'll never get out of this world alive

I could buy a Sunday suit and it would leave me broke

If it had two pair of pants I would burn the coat

No matter how I struggle and strive

I'll never get out of this world alive.

If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance

I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants

No matter how I struggle and strive

I'll never get out of this world alive.
