Helluva Life Frankie Ballard
Hey Everyone! This is my first tab, ever.
I tune my guitar to standard D, which is easily done by putting the capo on the
second fret and tuning to standard E.
I love this song and figured I'd post what I think is pretty accurate. Enjoy and Rock on!! :)

****Same chord progression the rest of the song**** just listen to the song for
timing if you need help.
Well we all have faith, and we all have hope,
But we're all a little lost in the same damn boat.
It's a helluva life, it's a helluva life.
Something bout the night girl,
when you got the right girl,
Sittin right beside you,
Lookin at the sky, girl
Thinkin bout why we're here,
And where we're goin,
baby, here we are,
And all I know is...
Pennies make dimes and dimes make dollars,
Dollars buy gas and longneck bottles,
Beer gets a barefoot country girl swayin,
To a song that's playin and the world starts fadin'.
Bad times make the good times better,
Look in her eyes and you're gone forever,
It's a helluva ride... Yeah, It's a helluva life.
***Palm Mute***
Something bout the night girl,
when you got the right girl,
Sittin right beside you,
Lookin at the sky, girl
Thinkin bout why we're here,
And where we're goin,
baby, here we are,
And all I know is...
Pennies make dimes and dimes make dollars,
Dollars buy gas and longneck bottles,
Beer gets a barefoot country girl swayin,
To a song that's playin, it's the perfect combination.
Bad times make the good times better,
Look in her eyes and you're gone forever,
It's a helluva ride... Yeah, It's a helluva life, it's a helluva life.
Bad times make the good times better.
Aw one helluva life.
Look in her eyes and you're gone forever.
It's a helluva life.
Yeah it's a helluva life.
It's a helluva life.
