Living Hard for Hard Sake

start with snare / kick laid back groove, 8 beats, then VERSE

laid back groove

Day drinking at the casino on a Tuesday at 2PM

Trying to turn this pocket change into something I can spend

I poured all my paychecks into pitchers and slots

Bad luck and drunk was all I got

continue groove, hat

BREAK on "ideas"

continue

drop back low on "Quit"

In the warm embrace of half a dozen beers

All my bad decisions seem like good ideas

living hard for hard sake just ain’t doing the trick

But living hard is just too hard to quit

laid back groove

I saddled up the wrong horse I played a losing hand

Put my trust in someone who I could not command

But all old gamblers know when they place their bets

Only the loser has regrets

continue groove, hat

BREAK on "ideas"

continue

drop back low on "Quit"

8ths build, through 2x

BREAK (4 count)

cont groove

Ooooh my wasted ways

Oooh these wasted days and nights without you

continue groove, hat

BREAK on "ideas"

continue

tag, BREAK on 2nd "quit"....6 count hold, then lead back in

cont groove
