Tom: C
C
My sweetheart is gone and I'm so lonesome
G7
She said that she and I were through
C
So I started out drinking for a pastime
G7 C
Driving nails in my coffin over you
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7 C
Driving those nails over you
C
Ever since the day that we parted
G7
I've felt so sad and so blue
C
I'm always worrying about you love
G7 C
And I just can't quit drinking that old booze
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7 C
Driving those nails over you
C
Now you've turned me down you don't want me
G7
There's nothing now I can lose
C
I'm just driving those nails in my coffin
G7 C
And worryin my darlin over you.
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7
Every time I drink a bottle of booze
C
I'm just driving nails in my coffin
G7 C
Lordy driving those nails over you
