[G]don't wanna [C]die 
in a Super 8 Mo[G]tel
[C]Just because somebodys evening 
didn't go so [G]well
If I [C]ever get back to Bristol 
I'm better off [G]sleeping 
in the county [E7]jail
don't wanna [D]die 
in a super 8 Mo[G]tel

[G]Having such a sweet night 
audience is just right 
drinking like a pirate [D]do
[D]don't want to sleep yet 
buddy it's  a good bet 
I'll raise more hell than [G]you
[G]Do a couple rails 
and chase your own tail 
and talk about the bad old [D]days
[D]Trimmer in a t-shirt 
telling me her heart hurt 
Honey let me count the [G]ways
Then a [G]big boy busted in 
screaming at his girlfriend 
waving around a Fungo [D]bat
[D]Bass player stepping up 
brandishing a coffee cup 
took it in the baby [G]fat

[G]don't wanna [C]die 
in a Super 8 Mo[G]tel
[C]Just because somebodys evening 
didn't go so [G]well
If I [C]ever get back to Bristol 
I'm better off [G]sleeping 
in the county [E7]jail
don't wanna [D]die 
in a super 8 Mo[G]tel

[G]Well I finally got the room clear 
bleeding from the left ear 
feeling pretty bad for the [D]maid
[D]Lost a couple drinks and my dinner 
in a sink and I woke up 
with the bed still [G]made
[G]wasn't quite morning a
nd I wasn't quite breathing 
my heart way up in my [D]throat
[D]The girl starts screaming 
and the maid starts screaming 
and it looks like that's all she [G]wrote
Well they [G]slapped me back to life 
and they telephoned my wife 
and they filled me full of Pedia[D]lyte
[D]Some are guts some are glory 
it would make a great story 
if I ever could remember it [G]right

[G]don't wanna [C]die 
in a Super 8 Mo[G]tel
[C]Just because somebodys evening 
didn't go so [G]well
If I [C]ever get back to Bristol 
I'm better off [G]sleeping 
in the county [E7]jail
don't wanna [D]die 
in a super 8 Mo[G]tel
I don't want to [D]die
