Austin Snell - Get There First

Capo: 3rd fret

[Intro]
Bm Bm G A
Bm Bm G A

[Verse]
Bm G A
There ain’t too many 2am back roads that I ain’t drove on drunk
Bm G A
Theres a trail ahead behind my trunk that I just can’t out run
Bm
Cursing her name, the man I became
G Em
And the flames has done burn out

A Bm
Heard theres a place out there for guys like me
G A
The demons are chasing me south

[Chorus]
Bm
Yeah, I gotta get there first
G A
Before they build a wall I can’t knock down
Bm
If I’m gonna make this work
G A
I gotta couple miles on this ground

Bm
And I can see the light at the end of the bottle
G A
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Bm
I let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
G A Bm
But all I know is I gotta get it there first

G Em
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Break]
A Bm
If the water run fast enough to flush these pills
G Em
They wouldn’t be on the counter
A Bm
And if this whiskey glass could hold anything more
G Em
It’d be enough to drown her

A Bm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
G Em
I’ll take more or-or-or-or-or
A Bm
An-and Oh oh oh oh oh oh
G A
I gotta get myself off the floor

[Chorus]
Bm
But I gotta get there first
G A
Before they build a wall I can’t knock down
Bm
If I’m gonna make this work
G A
I gotta couple miles on this ground

Bm
And I can see the light at the end of the bottle
G A
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Bm
I let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
G A Bm
But all I know is I gotta get it there first

[Instrumental/Solo]
Bm Bm G A
Bm Bm G A

Bm
Gotta get there first
G Em
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Bm
Get there first
G A Em
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Chorus]
Bm
Yeah, I gotta get there first
G A
Before they build a wall I can’t knock down
Bm
If I’m even gonna make this work
G A
I gotta couple miles on this ground

Bm
And I can see the light at the end of the bottle
G A
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Bm
I let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
G A Bm
But all I know is I gotta get it there first

[Outro]
G A
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Bm
Gotta get there first

G A
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Bm Bm G Em
Get there first
