Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
He [G]embarrasses
his child and wife
Lord he [C]leads a miserable life
But still he thinks the [G]bottle
is his right [D]hand[Am][D]
Yes [G]and he can tear down more
Than [C]he's ever built before
A man can be a [G]drunk sometimes
But a [D]drunk can't be a man
[G]

[Verse 2]
He lets his business lag behind
For the [C]nightlife he can find
Why he does all this he'll
[G]never under[D]stand
[Em]And in t[D]he morni[G]ng when he wakes up
Lord he can't [C]wait to fill his cup
A man can be [G]a drunk sometimes
But a [D]drunk can't be a man
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G][Am]
[G]For he [C]goes from Doctor Jekyll
[F]to [C]Mr.[Am]Hyde
He seem [G]proud to have
[A]a devil for his [D]guide
Still he keep[G]s on reaching out
Lord he [C]needs a helping hand
But a man can be a [G]drunk sometimes
But a [D]drunk can't be a [G]man
Yes a [C]man can be a [G]drunk sometimes
But a [D]drunk can't be a [G]man
