Chords and playing notes from his original unreleased original YouTube video:

Update 27 January 2023 - added the rest of the song to match the official lyric video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlSsYozbH2w
Standard tuning with no capo to play along with the official lyric video.
Tune everything down a half step to play along with the original unreleased vido.
For the D5* chords, play xx003x and hammer on to xx023x (Dsus4 to D5).
For the G*, hammer on to the 2nd fret of the A string.
For the A chords, I find that it sounds nice to hammer on to the B string (Asus2 to A) or, in the places
where I have indicated A**, to hammer on and pull of a couple times from A to A6 (x0422x).
The way he plays this in the original unreleased video, he seems to be avoiding the high E string
in this song.
[Chords]
Verse 1
I still hit them
dive bars
Every
once in a blue m
oon
Got a
wild card
I
keep inside my b
oot
I been th
inking lately m
aybe I should s
ave it
'Cause them h
angovers sure k
ick my ass these d
ays
So I spend m
ost my happy h
ours here at h
ome
In the m
iddle of growin'
up and gettin'
old
Chorus
But I can
still raise hell
all night with the boys when I
want to
Lay that
hammer down
to see how fast she'll
go
But these
days I hang
my hat on what I
won't do
And I've been
finding peace
of mind slowin' my
roll
Learn to
toe that line with
time as it
goes
In the m
iddle of growin'
up and gettin'
old
Verse 2
It's when you start
thinking
How much
time left you g
ot
If there's
more sand
In the b
ottom or the to
p
'Cause that
hour glass we h
ave don't last for
ever
I've been th
inkin' 'bout it
more and more these
days
It's like the l
ess you have the f
aster that it
goes
In the m
iddle of growing
up and gettin
old
Chorus
But I can
still raise hell
all night with the boys when I
want to
Lay that
hammer down
to see how fast she'll
go
But these
days I hang
my hat on what I
won't do
And I've been
finding peace
of mind slowin' my
roll
You learn to
toe that line with
time as it
goes
In the m
iddle of growin'
up and gettin'
old
Bridge
I'm still b
endin' rules, but
thinkin' 'fore I
break 'em
And I ain't
lost a step, I just
look before I t
ake 'em
Outro
But I can
still raise hell
all night with the boys when I
want to
Lay that
hammer down
to see how fast she'll
go
But these
days I hang
my hat on what I
won't do
And I've been
finding peace
of mind slowin' my
roll
Learn to
toe that line with
time as it
goes
In the m
iddle of growin'
up and gettin'
old
