[Verse]
               Am7                       Em                      
We'll take the copper from the work site meet me here at midnight
D                            C    
They ain't got a camera or a guard
                             Em                   
Write my own prescription if I can't get a fix son
D                   C        
Shit's about to get real hard
                       Em                       
Molly don't believe me says she's gonna leave me
    D                       C   
The kids won't even know my name
                              Em                
Put a gallon in the step site with a little help
D                       C      
By morning I won't feel no pain

[Verse]
Am7                       Em             
Never thought I'd wind up this far behind
       D                        C      
Just a couple years back we had it made
                               Em               
I was emptying my bladder on a twentyfoot ladder
D                                       C         
Should've climbed down and found myself some shade
Cmaj7                        Em                     
Doctor took a quick look and I got out the checkbook
D                           C       
And left with a pocket full of pills
                                    Em                  
Now my back's still hurtin' and I'm too weak for workin'
      D                          C    
And I can't keep up with all the bills


[Chorus]
G                             C                   
■ She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
        Em                D           C                     
And I'd hear her homemade house shoes slide across the floor
G                                   C               
■ She used to make me feel like the king of Oklahoma
    Em               D                 C              
But nothing makes me feel like much of nothing anymore

[Verse]
      Am                           Em                   
I was all set up to do it but some bastard beat me to it
        D                       C  
Ain't a copper pipe left on the lot
                                    Em                 
Got a loan out on the truck but I'm runnin' out of luck
D                               C       
And the title is the only thing I've got
                       Em                       
Molly's gonna leave me says she don't believe me
D                     C   Cmaj7
I got nothing left to lie about
                          Em                       
She's going back to Bixby tired of trying to fix me
D                       C         
Says I got some shit to figure out


[Chorus]
G                        C                        
■ She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
        Em                D           C                     
And I'd hear her homemade house shoes slide across the floor
    G                                   C               
And ■ she used to make me feel like the king of Oklahoma
    Em7              D                 C               G
But nothing makes me feel like much of nothing anymore ■
                       C                        
She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
        Em             D                   C                          G
And I'd act like I was sleepin' 'til she'd walk back through the door ■
                                  C               
She used to make me feel like the king of Oklahoma
    Em7     Em    Em7 D                 C              
But nothing makes me  feel like much of nothing anymore
