John Conlee - Backside of thirty

^CMaking money at 30 with a ^Fwife and a ^G7son Then a ^Cshort 5 years later it ^D7all comes un^G7done

She's ^Cgone back to mama with the ^Fboy by her ^G7side Now I'm ^Cwine drunk and running with ^G7them on my ^Cmind

I'm on the ^Fbackside of thirty and ^Cback on my own An ^E7empty apartment don't ^Ffeel like a ^G7home

On the ^Fbackside of thirty the ^Cshort side of time Back on the bottom with ^G7no will to ^Fclimb

^CIt's dawn Monday morning and I ^Fjust called in ^G7sick I skipped ^Cwork last Friday to ^D7drink this month's ^G7rent

And ^Cwhen my friends ask me I ^Ftell 'em I'm ^G7fine But my ^Ceyes tell the story that my ^G7lies can't ^Chide

I'm on the ^Fbackside of thirty and ^Cback on my own An ^E7empty apartment don't ^Ffeel like a ^G7home

On the ^Fbackside of thirty the ^Cshort side of time Back on the bottom with ^G7no will to ^Fclimb

^CIt's dawn Monday morning and I ^Fjust called in ^G7sick I skipped ^Cwork last Friday to ^D7drink this month's ^G7rent

And ^Cwhen my friends ask me I ^Ftell 'em I'm ^G7fine But my ^Ceyes tell the story that my ^G7lies can't ^Chide
