[Intro]
Db Gbsus2
[Verse 1]
Db Gbsus2 Db Gbsus2 Db
I was a bad reputation, with an attitude to match
Gbsus2 Db
Hell bent on goin' nowhere, and gettin' there lightning fast
Gbsus2 Db
Twentyone and lookin' thirty, but actin' half my age
Gbsus2 Db
Bound to hit a wall before I ever hit the brakes
[Chorus]
Gbsus2 Db
Codeine, it got Elvis
Gbsus2 Db
Whiskey, it got Hank
Gbsus2 Db Bbm Ab
I always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
Gbsus2 Db Gbsus2 Ab Bbm
But you took hold of me, like only a woman can
Gbsus2 Db Ab Db
And gave one good reason to live, to a set on dyin' man
[Verse 2]
Gbsus2 Db
When a Friday meets a Sunday
Gbsus2 Db
You can't help but see the light
I never believed in angels
Gbsus2 Db
'Til one believed in me that night
Gbsus2
Turned my offtrack into a straight line
Ab
Before I turned into a headline like
[Chorus]
Gbsus2 Db
Codeine, it got Elvis
Gbsus2 Db
Whiskey, it got Hank
Gbsus2 Db Bbm Ab
I always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
Gbsus2 Db Gbsus2 Ab Bbm
But you took hold of me, like only a woman can
Gbsus2 Db Ab Gbsus2 Db
And gave one good reason to live, to a set on dyin' man
Gbsus2 Db Gbsus2 Db Bbm Ab
Woahoh

Turned a oneway man oneeighty
Gbsus2 Db
Settled down a given upper
Gbsus2 Db
Yeah, you changed a You can't change me
Bbm Ab
So, the world won't see another
[Chorus]
Gbsus2 Db
Codeine, it got Elvis
Gbsus2 Db
Whiskey, it got Hank
Gbsus2 Db Bbm Ab
I always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
Gbsus2 Db Gbsus2 Ab Bbm

[Outro]
Db Gbsus2
A set on dyin' man
Db Gbsus2 Db
I was a bad reputation with an attitude to match
Hell bent on goin' nowhere and gettin' there lightning fast
Twenty-one and looking thirty, but acting half my age
Bound to hit a wall before I ever hit the brakes
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
I always thought something like that
Might send me on my way
But you took hold of me
Like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live
To a set-on-dying man
When a Friday meets a Sunday, you can't help but see the light
I never believed in angels till one believed in me that night
Turned my off-track into a straight line
Before I turned into a headline, like
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
I always thought something like that
Might send me on my way
But you took hold of me
Like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live
To a set-on-dying man
Whoa
Turned a one-way man 180
Settled down a giving-upper
Yeah, you changed a you-can't-change-me
So the world won't see another
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
I always thought something like that
Might send me on my way
But you took hold of me
Like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live
To a set-on-dying man
A set-on-dying man
