[Intro]
A
 
 
[Verse]
A
I worked the rigs from three 
'til midnight
                      D
On the Corpus Christi Bay
                           A
I'd get off and drink 'til daylight
                   E7
Sleep the morning away
 
 
[Verse 2]
A
I had a plan to take my wages
                          D
Leave the rigs behind for good
                        A
But that life, it is contagious
E7                       A
And it gets down in your blood
 
 
[Verse]
A                         D  A
I lived in Corpus with my brother
                     D
We was always on the run
                     A
We were bad for one another
                           E7
But we were good at having fun
 
 
[Verse]
                        A
We got stoned along the seawall
                          D
We got drunk and rolled a car
                           A
We knew the girls in every dance hall
E7                 A
Had a tab in every bar
 
 
[Chorus]
                        E7
If I could live my life all over
                      A
It wouldn't matter anyway
                   E7
I never could stay sober
                            A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
 
 
[Verse]
A                         D   A
My brother had a wife and family
                            D
You know he gave 'em both a home
                             A
But his wife thought we were crazy
                         E7
And one day we found her gone
 
 
[Verse]
                          
We threw her clothes into
A
the car trunk  
                         D
Her photographs, her rosary
                          A
Went down to the pier and got drunk
D                     A
Threw it all into the sea
 
 
[Chorus]
                        E7
If I could live my life all over
                      A
It wouldn't matter anyway
                          E7
'Cause I never could stay sober
                            A    D A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
 
 
[Verse]
A
Now my brother lives in Houston
                       D
Married for the second time
                   A
Got a job with the union
                    E7
It's keeping him in line
 
 
[Verse]
                            A
He came to Corpus just this weekend
                       D
It was good to see him here
                           A
He said he finally gave up drinking
E7              A
He ordered me a beer
 
 
[Chorus]
                        E7
If I could live my life all over
                      A
It wouldn't matter anyway
                        E7
Well I never could stay sober
                            A
Down on that Corpus Christi Bay
 
 
[Outro]
                        E7
If I could live my life all over
                   A
It wouldn't matter anyway
                         D A   D A
I never could stay sober
D A   D A   D A   D  A
