My ship came and she sunk it,
I was the toast of the town and she drunk it.
D7 G7I had a run of good luck and she ran it right into the ground.
D A DAnd now she's puttin' on a show and I get to play the clown.
D7
I had the wind in my sails and she took it ,
I had the world by the tail and she shook it.
D7 G7I reached out for a life line and she threw me a noose
D7 A DI got the short end of the chicken and she got the golden goose.
Chorus: G7 (play slide guiter) D7
She's living it up, and I'm tryin' to live it down.
Just when I got it all together ,it's all about to come unwound.
G7 D7 G7Everybody laughin' behind my back,baby sure is a sad old sound.
D A DShe's out there livin it up and I'm trying to live it down.
REPEAT THE INTRO take a lead
D7 G7
I had my ducks in a row and she shot 'em,
G7I had my eggs in a basket she dropped 'em
D7 G7I threw her outta the house but she was back like a boomarang.
Sometimes you get the honey,sometime all you get is the stang.
She's living it up, and I'm tryin' to live it down.
D7 D7 E7 A7Just when I got it all together ,it's all about to come unwound.
G7 D7 G7Everybody laughin' behind my back,baby sure is a sad old sound.
She's out there livin it up and I'm trying to live it down.
D A DShe's out there livin it up and I'm trying to live it down.
