Michael Peterson

Intro: (B)  (B)  (A)  (B)

(B) I was 12 when daddy said to me
Don't take to drinking boy that road don't lead no (F#) where   
And don't you ever let me hear you (B) swear 
Don't you dare (A) 
(B) He told me that stealing's a lazy man's way
Something for nothing leaves you hell to pay so don't (E) lie 
and then you can look the whole world in the (B) eye
Honey I try
   
But (F#) since I met you (G#m) girl I've been breaking (C#m) every (F#) rule
(C#m) I must con(G#m)fess I'm just a (E) back sliding (F#) fool

I want to (E) drink from your (F#) loving cup
(B) Swear I'll never (E) give you up
(G#m) Steal all your (C#m) kisses under(F#)neath the moon
I wanna (E) lie here (F#) close to you (B) look at what you (G#m) made me do
(E) Darling you're the reason why
I (F#) drink, swear, steal and lie

Last night I threw away the 12 step book
I finally faced the fact that I am hooked on you
There's nothing more that I can do 
Ain't no use
"Cause every time I see your angel face
My halo disappears without a trace  I swear
Girl I'd admit I haven't got a prayer
But I don't care

I know this ain't exactly how I was raised
But heaven help me honey I ain't changing my ways

Repeat Chorus Twice

(F#) drink, swear, steal and lie
