THIS IS A SONG I WROTE ABOUT MURPHIES LAW.
[C]
NOW MURPHIES LAW SEEMS TO HAVE POKED, PRODDED AND
[C]
PESTERED ME MY WHOLE LIFE SO IT SEEMS RIGHT THAT I
[C]
WRITE ABOUT IT. SO IF YOU'VE HEARD OF MURPHIES
[C]
LAW...AND I'M GUESSING YOU HAVE... YOU'LL
[C]
KNOW WHERE I'M COMING FROM AND UNFORTUNATELY YOU
[C]
CAN RELATE. HE HE
[C]Baseball was a game I played when [F]I was young.
Man it was [C]so much fun, I could play it all [G]day.
One [C]day I was playing a game in front of my [F]Maw and my Paw,
When the [C]baseball took a durty [G]bounce right up and [C]broke my jaw.[G7]
[F]Three long years of playing without [C]dropping one.
Aaah [G]AhAaah [C]Ah
[F]Murphies law and broken jaws can't [C]kill the fun.
Ain't no one to [G7]blame.
It's just a Goddamn [C]shame.
[C]
NOW GROWING UP I ALSO BROKE BOTH MY ARMS AND ONE OF
[C]
MY LEGS. HECK I EVEN BROKE MY BIG TOE TRYING TO STICK IT
[C]
WHERE IT DIDN'T BELONG...I'LL KEEP THAT ONE TO MYSELF.
[C]
ANYWAYS....
[C]I remember when I got my [F]very first car,
Man it could go [C]fast and far, I would drive it all [G]day.
One [C]night I went out gambling to my [F]favorite bar,
When a [C]deer crashed through my [G]windshield and it [C]wrecked my car. [G7]
[F]Ten long years of driving without [C]wrecking one.
Aaah [G]AhAaah[C]Ah
[F]Murphies law and broken jaws can't [C]kill the fun.
Ain't no one to [G7]blame.
It's just a goddamn [C]shame.
[C]
NOW IN MY LIFETIME I'VE HAD ONE HOUSE BURNED TO THE
[C]
GROUND BY LIGHTNING, ANOTHER HOUSE KNOCKED TO THE
[C]
GROUND BY A TORNADO AND MY POOR DOG TRIXIE SQUISHED
[C]
INTO THE GROUND........BY A MAC TRUCK. I'VE BEEN DIVORCED
[C]

[C]
ALTHOUGH ALL THREE OF THOSE GOOD OLE BOYS MY EX'S
[C]
MARRIED HAD THE LAST NAME OF........YOU GUESSED
[C]
IT..............MURPHY. YOU TELL ME HE HE. ALL I KNOW IS.....
[C]Now I live all alone here in this old [F]trailer park.
Man at [C]night it's dark, so I drink in the [G]day.
Last [C]weekend I was just sitting here in the [F]evening sun,
When a [C]bird crapped in my [G]beer and it weren't a [C]little one. [G7]
[F]Fifty years of drinking without [C]spilling one.
Aaah [G]ahAaah[C]Ah
[F]Murphies law and broken jaws can't [C]kill the fun.
Ain't no one to [G7]blame,
Ain't no one to [G7]blame,
Ain't no one to [G7]blame,
It's just a goddamn [C]shame. [F][C][G][C][G][C]
