Whiskey Myers - Other Side Chords

[Intro]
C    D  / Em  E5  x3
 
(Verse 1)
D                Em       E     C
Your daddy was a ramblin' man,
D          Em          E       C
One that's been down a time or two,
C       D          Em         E   C
I was a late night gambling man,
D             Em       E        C
Back before I met your mama and you,
C         D             Em          E    C    D
So let me drop a little wisdom on ya,
Em           E   C                  D                  Em        E  C
Before I get old gray, so you don't do the things that I've done,
D             Em               E      C        D
No, you don't have to make the same mistakes,
C                               D
'Cause I won't always be around,
C                           D
No, I won't always be around...
 
(Chorus)
                            C               D       Em
So here's a few things I've learned from my crooked road,
                D                            Em
Like life ain't worth living if you spend it alone,
Em         D            C          D     Em             D
It takes a whole lot of love and a happy home to get it right,
                                C
And a little something from the other side.

(Verse 2)
                       Em          E  C   D
You know I tasted that desert wind,
Em                    E    C
I've danced through a hurricane,
D                     Em         E   C
I climbed the highest mountains,
C               Em     D        C           D               Em        E C
Had the baddest women, and champagne but it didn't bring me happiness,
D          Em           E     C       D              Em            E
I was only empty 'til I found love so boy don't ever lose yourself,
C         D                  Em       E  C      D
And don't forget that there's someone up above
C                        D                    C                  D
'Cause I won't always be around for when this ol' world gets you down.
 
(Chorus)
                            C               D       Em
So here's a few things I've learned from my crooked road,
     E          D                            Em
Like life ain't worth living if you spend it alone,
Em         E            C        D         Em             D
It takes a whole lot of love and flesh and bone to get it right,
                 C                      D     Em
So stick to your guns and let your roots run deep,
D                           Em
Don't be scared of taking a leap,
              E       C                D            Em                       D
It takes some falling down and getting back on your feet before you learn to fly,
                                C     D
And a little something from the other side,
Em                 D        C     D
A little something from the other side.

So here's a few things I've learned from my crooked road,
E                        D                        Em
That there ain't nothing wrong with never growing old,
               E         C             D          Em                D
It's about the times you share not the things you own or the bottom line,
               C               D     Em
And though one day I won't be around
                D                       Em
Just know I was happy with the life I found
D                      C           D         Em                   D
It took a whole lot of falling and stumbling down before I got it right
                                    C          D
It took a little something from the other side
Em                 D              C   D
A little something from the other side
Em          D           C              D
A little something from the other side
