This is the chords of Creeker by Tyler Childers on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
E A E
In a small corner bar, he sits there a-drinkin\’
F#m A E
Lost as a ball in a field full of corn
F#m A E
Further away than he ever imagined
B A E
That he\’d ever end up from the place he was born
E
Now no more forlorn as the Creeker drank whiskey
A E
Than the one that you see outside of your eye
F#m A E
Drinkin\’ alone as he looks out the window
B A E
At all of the strangers on the corner outside
[Chorus]
A E
He\’d rather be dead than alive one more minute
B A E
In this godforsaken town
F#m A E
When he was a kid, Lord, he\’d never have dreamt it
B A E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
[Verse 2]
E A E
Now they knew not his name and he knew not their faces
A E
And he knew not the how nor the reason for why
A E
You could ever wake up and wanna keep on a-livin\’
B A E
In a place where a friend is such a hard thing to find
E
And for everyone you meet, there\’s a whole mess of people
A E
Tryin\’ like hell to pull you on down
A E
To the level they\’re on and the trouble they\’re tendin\’
B A E
In the mess that they\’ve made, in the gutter they found
[Chorus]
A E
He\’d rather be dead than alive one more minute
B A E
In this godforsaken town
F#m A E
When he was a kid, Lord, he\’d never have dreamt it
B A E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
[Bridge]
E A E
Some fellas do pills and things of that nature
A E
Some fellas chase girls to hang on their arm
A E
Some fellas get by on practically nothin\’
B A E
Some fellas get pissed in a small corner bar
[Chorus]
A E
And they\’d rather be dead than alive one more minute
B A E
In this godforsaken town
F#m A E
When they were all kids, Lord, they\’d never have dreamt it
B A E
All the ways that the city can bring a country boy down
