Verse1: 
 Am           C                            G 
Tell me why a lesson in life can come so strong, like a good melody, with a bad song, 
 Am                    C                             G 
when I was a child, my momma tried to get me to understand, I thought it was a man,  
 G                             Am             C  
but the bottle was her best friend, up until, the day she passed away, 
    G        G 
I cried, I cried, like a baby deep inside 


 Am                                   C                                   G 
I?d take him out back, show him who I am, whoop his ass cause he ain?t my friend,  
 Em                               Em                   Am C G Em

I sat down, at the bar last night and watched an older man half spent, 
 G                                      Am                C 
they cut him off, told him that was it, he said boy, what do I do, 
                          G                                                    Am 
cause I can?t drive and I might, I just might, take a ride with the devil home tonight,  
                    C                         G 
So I told him, the only thing to do, you only get one chance to make it alright,  
 G
