I Aint Living Long Like This

Emmylou Harris

 C
 You  looked for trouble and you found it son

Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
 C
 You tried to run but I don't think you can
 C
 You make one move and you're a dead man friend
 F
Ain't living long like this
 C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
 G
 He slipped the handcuffs on behind your back

And left me freezing on a steel rail track
 F
They got'em all in the jailhouse baby
 C
I Ain't living long like this
 C
 Grew up in Houston off the wayside drive

Son of a carhop in some all night dives

Dad drove a stock car to an early death

All I remember was a drunk man's breath
 F
I Ain't living long like this
 C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
 G
You know the story how the wheel goes 'round

Don't let them take you to the man downtown
 F
They got ie all in  the jailhouse baby
 C
Ain't living long like this

Can't live at all like this can i baby

SOLO

 C
 You live with Angel she's a roadhouse queen
 C
 Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee
 C
 You want to love her but you don't know how

Your at the bottom in the jailhouse now
 F
Ain't living long like this
 C
Can't live at all like this can I baby
 G
 You know the story about the jailhouse rock

Go on and do it but just don't get caught
 F
Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse baby
 C
Ain't living long like this

Can't live at all like this can i baby

Ain't living long like this

F C F C F C and fade out
