Capo I (all chords relative) Intro: Verse 1: Six pack of somethin' bottle of pills Got to be a better way to get my thrills Lord you know sometime livin' ain't hardly enough Not when you're waitin' on a sign from heaven above Verse 2: Lyin' round the house wastin' sleep all day Everything I wanted keeps slippin' away What can I do when my time flies like a dove Won't come back without a sign from heaven above Verse 3: This nine to five work is giving me the blues Wanna get my picture on the six o'clock news Oh pretty baby maybe I ain't got the stuff But I can't can't make a move without a sign from heaven above Verse 4: I found me a lover she's six foot three Everybody says she's better looking than me What can I say I guess I'm only lucky in love Lord it helps pass the time when you're waiting on heaven above Instrumental: Verse 5: Bar full of strangers & fifty cent beer God Almighty, what am I doing here Always end up on the floor when push comes to shove Can't pick myself up without a sign from heaven above Verse 6: But I gotta write it down make everything right Goin' to a party on Saturday night Me oh my, what on earth was I thinkin' of? Time rolls by when you're waitin' on heaven above Yeah life rolls by when you're waitin' on heaven above Repeat verse 1 (fade)
