Me And Big Dave Cifras

[Verse 1]
A                                            E
Me and a big Dave were just trying to stay upright
                                                      A
We were chasing white lines and warping our minds last night
 
We were killing the time though we sure didn't know it
D
Hunting down rhymes with a Kentucky poet
E                                        A
Me and big Dave were just trying to stay alive
 
[Verse 2]
A
There's some folks around town
                                       E
That might cuss our names down to the floor
 
They might claim that were loners
                      A
No account stoners and more
 
It's the same kind of people claim to be chosen
D
Their ears made of stone and their tongues made of poison
  E                                                    A
The doctrine they preach has got nothing that they can teach me

[Verse 3]
 A                                                           E
Well I don't know if Dave hates the same kind of hate that I do
                                                   A
He knows that I know that he's been cut down by it too
 
Well people get talking 'bout things that we uses
D
I ain't in the business of making excuses
E                                        A
Me and big Dave were just trying to stay alive
 
This whole world's full of ghosts
                                    E
That I believe that most folks can't see
                                                  A
The particular demons that reason with big Dave and me

Lyrics from Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger
 
D                                    A                                              E
Don't cross him, don't boss him, he's wild in his sorrow, he's ridin' and hidin' his pain
D                                  A                    E                     A
Don't fight him, don't spite him, let's wait till tomorrow maybe he'll ride on again
