alcohol and pills Fred Eaglesmith
[F+ACM-m]Hank Williams, he came up fro[D]m Montgomery
With a heart[E]ful of broken country songs[F+ACM-m]
[F+ACM-m]Nashville Tennessee didn+IBk-t rea[D]lly understand him
Cause he di[E]d things differently than the way that they were [F+ACM-m]done
When he finally [D]made it to the Grand Ol Opry he made it stand still[F+ACM-m]
He en[E]ded up on alcohol and pills[F+ACM-m]
Elvis Presley, he came up from Jackson
With a brand new way of singin+IBk- and a brand new way of dancin+IBk-
And even from the waist up Lord he gave the world a thrill
He ended up on alcohol and pills
[A]Alcohol and pills, it+IBk-[E]s a cryin+IBk- shame
[Bm] [D] You think they might have been happy with the glory and the fame
But fam[A]e doesn+IBk-t take away the pain, it only pays the bi[E]lls
And you wind up[Bm] on alcohol and[D] pills[F+ACM-m]
Janis Joplin, she was wild and reckless
Then there was Graham Parsons, Lord, and then there was Jimmy Hendrix
The story just goes on and on and I guess it always will
They ended up on alcohol and pills
Chorus
[Bm]Sometimes somebody just doesn+IBk-t wak[F+ACM-m]e up one day
[Bm]Sometimes it+IBk-s a heart attack, sometimes they j[E]ust don+IBk-t say
[F+ACM-m]They pulled poor old Hank Wlliams out of a Cadillac CoupeDeVille[Bm]
He end[E]ed up on alcohol and pills[F+ACM-m]
