Вступление
CORPUS CHRISTI BAY
As recorded by Todd Snider
(From the 2009 Album THE EXCITEMENT PLAN)
[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A
I worked the rigs from three 'til midnight
D
On the Corpus Christi Bay
A
I'd get off and drink 'til daylight
E7
Sleep the morning away
[Verse 2]
A
I had a plan to take my wages
D
Leave the rigs behind for good
A
But that life, it is contagious
E7 A
And it gets down in your blood
[Verse 3]
A D A
I lived in Corpus with my brother
D
We was always on the run
A
We were bad for one another
E7
But we were good at having fun
[Verse 4]
A
We got stoned along the seawall
D
We got drunk and rolled a car
A
We knew the girls in every dance hall
E7 A
Had a tab in every bar
[Chorus]
E7
If I could live my life all over
A
It wouldn't matter anyway
E7
I never could stay sober
A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
[Verse 5]
A D A
My brother had a wife and family
D
You know he gave 'em both a home
A
But his wife thought we were crazy
E7
And one day we found her gone
[Verse 6]
A
We threw her clothes into the car trunk
D
Her photographs, her rosary
A
Went down to the pier and got drunk
D A
Threw it all into the sea
[Chorus]
E7
If I could live my life all over
A
It wouldn't matter anyway
E7
'Cause I never could stay sober
A D A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
[Verse 7]
A
Now my brother lives in Houston
D
Married for the second time
A
Got a job with the union
E7
It's keeping him in line
[Verse 8]
A
He came to Corpus just this weekend
D
It was good to see him here
A
He said he finally gave up drinking
E7 A
He ordered me a beer
[Chorus]
E7
If I could live my life all over
A
It wouldn't matter anyway
E7
Well I never could stay sober
A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
[Outro]
E7
If I could live my life all over
A
It wouldn't matter anyway
D A D A
I never could stay sober
D A D A D A D A
