Verse 
C 
Prayin' on the north wind 
F             C 
Lead me to my door 
C 
Thumbing through my green backs 
G               C 
Swearin' I made more 
C 
Some cruel nightly cycle 
F                           C 
Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor 
G 
I don't cry for you 
C 
Anymore 

verse 2 
C 
Many a dark hour 
F                  C 
I look up to the sky 
C 
Many unkind thoughts are laid 
G            C 
On my hazy eyes 
C 
Sometimes I get to thinkin' 
F                    C 
Why wait around to die 
G 
I don't think of you 
C 
So I get by 
 
F            Am7/F# 
Every day it seems 
C                           F 
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream 
C               G 
I don't dream of you 
C 
Anymore 

verse 3 
C 
The sun is gone away now 
F                      C 
Green grass turns to brown 
C 
Every December it gets a little bit harder 
G                    C 
To lay that bottle down 
C 
It's more than just the weather 
F                          C 
That plagues this prairie town 
G  
I won't be seeing you 
C 
When I come 'round 

F            Am7/F# 
Every day it seems 
C                           F 
My whole damn life's just a codeine dream 
C               G 
I don't dream of you 
C 
Anymore
