Capo 2nd Fret

Cold Start (No Intro)

(No Chord) Lord, I quit the drinkin', the smokin' an' the (D7) honky-tonk (G) life.
The (D) day that a ring an' a preacher made her my (A) wife. (G) (A)
Yeah, an' (D) I said: "I do", but I didn't have a (D7) clue,
How I'd (G) miss all the whiskey an' women.
I tried to be (C) true, but it's all I can (G) do,
Keepin' up with the (D) Jonesin'. (G) (A) (D)

Man, this (D) hectic, domestic lifestyle takes a (D7) while to ad(G)just.
Ah, she don't (D) seem to remember that old rowdy rambler I (A) was. (G) (A)
'Cause she (D) calls up her friends an' tells them,
How good I been (G) doin'.
But the truth is (C) I'm goin' out of my (G) mind,
Keepin' up with the (D) Jonesin'. (G) (A) (D)

  An' I miss gettin' (G) high, an' (C) stayin out all (G) night,
  With all my old (D) friends.
  An' I miss the (A) liquor, the bartenders,
  The (G) fights, the (A) girls an' the (D) bands.
  It wouldn't be so damned (G) hard, (C)
  If I didn't (G) know what I'm (D) missin'. (G)
  She don't under(C)stand, I'm doin' all that I (G) can,
  Keepin' up with the (D) Jonesin'.

SOLO

  It gets so damned (G) hard, (C)
  When I (G) know what I'm (D) missin'. (G)
  Sometimes I give (C) in, start over a(G)gain
  Keepin' up with the (D) Jonesin'. (G)

  Son I under(C)stand 
  It takes a hell of a (G) man
  Keepin' up with the (D) Jonesin'
