Mom and Dad took me [Baug]to church,

[Em]Sing [Dsus4]it loud[A]
Oh [G]mister judge I wasn't
always [Baug]this way
I just changed one [C]day,
realized [Dsus4]life's qu[D]ite the li[A]ttle parade
[G]For a little girl with a [B]freckled face
I [Baug]smiled w[C]ide, guess I lost [A]my pride,
Guess I lost my [G]pride
Oh I looked straight into
the face [Baug]of jesus
I lifted up my [C]hands and
grabbed [A]another man
Oh when I [G]was a little a girl
I [B]made a due,
Fall in [C]love again,
Teach [A]myself the blues,
teach [G]myself the blues
That's when I found the bottle
and started [B]smoking cigarettes
[Baug]And I started [C]talking meaner and the[A]n I
packed up my [Em]dress
Oh bless [G]this mess,
[B]oh [Baug]bless this [B]mess[C][A]
So don't [G]tell me about
the good Word
Don't tell me about the
[B]finer things in life
[Baug]Don't te[C]ll me about your picket fence,
Your [A]dodd and loving wife
Please just [G]give me a glass of red wine
and a steel [Baug]six string guitar,[B]
If you [C]want to preach the good life
then I'll [A]meet you at the bar
