song: "Time Off For Bad Behavior"
   artist: David Allan Coe
tabbed by: cayce colorado

this is favorite track off of "live at billy bob's" ... between the first chorus
and the first verses, David stops the band to let everyone know that he thinks
the first lines of the verse is some of the coolest stuff he's ever written, and
i have to agree with him. good stuff. looking forward to seeing him at the
key club in hollywood next weekend, hope he plays this one.

need a little [F]time off for bad be[Bb]havior
devil in me done [Ab]been asleep too [F]long
need a little time off for bad be[Bb]havior
looks like i've been [Ab]too good for too [F]long

i'm [F]up and gone at the crack of dawn, i been [Bb]workin like a regular [F]dog
to keep my woman and the lights and the [C]water and the phone turned [F]on

[chorus]

i've [F]had this number on my mind a while, i been [Bb]fightin off the urge to [F]call
