C

Well I used to be bad

Am

I was born to lose

G F

And my travelin' shoes was the only shoes I had

C

Well I used to be cool

Am G F

I was that Sunday afternoon, Sunk 'n drunk and stumblin fool

G

'Till I met your momma

C Am

She pulled me outta that terrible fix, well

F

I know daddy's been away awhile

G

Cause it's been hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

C G F G

Tell your momma your daddy's done quit his drinkin'

C G F G

Tell your momma your daddy done found the Lord

C G Am G F

Tell your momma your daddy done quit his cussin, his fightin, his carryin on

F G C G7

But don't you tell your momma God Damn, your daddy's bored

C

Well I used to be sly

Am

I'd stay out all night

G

'Cause I loved to fight

F

And make them young girls cry

C

Well I used to be rude

Am G

I was a crude, screwed, lewd, glued, tattooed

F

Down -n - dirty with a just plain surly attitude

G

'Till I met your momma

C Am

She pulled me outta this terrible fix

F

I know daddy's been away awhile

G

Cause it's been hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

C G F G

Tell your momma your daddy's done quit his drinkin'

C G F G

Tell your momma your daddy done found the Lord

C G Am G F

Tell your momma your daddy done quit his cussin, his fightin, his carryin on

F G C

But don't you tell your momma God Damn, your daddy's bored

F

Well if a thousand times I've seen the light

C

You know that I've gone blind a thousand times again

F

And if a thousand times I said "I do"

C

you know I turn my tail a thousand one again

Am G

I didn't mean no harm I's just havin' fun again

Uh-oh, uh-oh, SCOTTY'S GOT A SOLO!!
