[Verse 1]
Bm
I wish that I smoked cigarettes

Maybe I'm a sinner
Bm A# A
I wish I had a lowride car so I could drive my lowride heart to somewhere where nobody knows your

G Bm G D
I wish that I could wish you, I wish that I could wish you away
Bm G D
And I'd be oka-a-ay
[Verse 2]

I bet I'll forget my own name
D
Before I'd forget you
Bm
But I'll forgive all my enemies
D
Before I'll forgive you

A G
And finally I could give her what she needs
[Chorus]

They'll be better days coming for me

But right now I'm slummin, bummin and slummin away and that's okay
[Chorus]
