G5 C5
I ain't the kind you take home to Mama
G5 C5
I ain't the kind to wear no ring
G5 C5
Somehow I always get stronger
G5 C5
When I'm on my second drink
( G5 ) ( C5 ) x2
G5 C5
Even though I hate to admit it
G5 C5
Sometimes I smoke cigarettes
G5 C5
The Christian folk say I should quit it
G5 C5
I just smile and say, 'God bless'
strum just (G)
Chorus-
D5
Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
C5 G5
And I bet we'd get along just fine
D5
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
C5 G5
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
( G5 ) ( C5 ) x2
G5 C5
Daddy cried when he saw my tattoo
G5 C5
Said he loved me anyway
G5 C5
My brother got the brains of the family
G5 C5
So I thought I'd learn to sing
Strum just (G)
Chorus-
D5
Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
C5 G5
And I bet we'd get along just fine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind
C5 G5
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
