I MAY SMOKE TOO MUCH - chords and comments

At the bottom you'll find a link to the complete lyrics.

Track #6 on Kris Kristofferson's underestimated album "Spooky Lady's Sideshow"(Monument 1974), also released as a flopping single. I've never heard anybody else sing this. But I do.
I've been there; done that. 
A
once my future was shiny
                   E
as the seat of my pants are today
                                                          A
then old mother luck and all her daughters started duckin' me

when I finally got tired of just
                           E
sittin' there watching my life slip away
                                                               A
I said I better start takin' all the living that's a-comin' to me

A
now I love too much
D
fight too much
A         A7      D
stay out late at night too much
         A                                        E
but you bet your butt I'm going to live before I die
            A
and I may smoke too much
D
drink too much
A       A7      D
every blessed thing too much
        A                    E                  A
It's a low-down life but it ain't gonna pass me by
Kris himself plays this even without the A7, leaving the jazzy stuff to the ensemble. You may perform tricks with 6 and 7-chords, minors and so on, but it's too complicated for a simple tab. You'd better finsd and work it out yourself.
