C                        G
Today I'm livin' like a rich man's son
A#                        F
Tomorrow morning I could be a bum
C                          G
It doesn't matter which direction though
A#                     F
I know a woman in New Mexico, oh

Chorus:
Dm7             G   Dm7          G
Worst comes to worst, I'll get along
Dm7           G              Dm7           G
I don't know how but sometimes I can be strong

And if I don't have a car I'll hitch
I got a thumb and she's a son of a bitch
I'll do my writing on my road guitar
And make a living at a piano bar

Chorus:
Oh worse comes to worst I'll get along
I don't know how but sometimes I can be strong

G    Am    A#
Woo, woo, woo
A#              F
Lightning and thunder
  C                                 G
Flashed across the roads we drove upon
A#                                F
Oh, but it's clear skies we're under
 Am                   G              G7
When I am together, when I sing the song

Chorus:
Worse comes to worst I'll get along
I don't know how but sometimes I can be strong

Fun ain't easy if it ain't free
Too many people got a hold on me
But I know something that they don't know
I know a woman in New Mexico

Chorus:
Oh worse comes to worst I'll get along
I don't know how but sometimes I can be strong - x3
