Capo 5

(the chords are off of when they should really be played because the system isn't 
working but its pretty easy to follow along if you just listen to it as the whole 
song is pretty much the same pattern)

C G Em D x2

C               G                   Em          D
Everybody down in Houston calls him Texas 
C               G                              Em          D
Everybody way up north calls him cornbread 
C                                   G                         
You should've heard the way that his mama called him "baby" 
Em                    D                                         C
Daddy called him "boy", his friends called him "crazy" 


C                   G                         Em          D
Shoulda just called it like i saw it 
C                    G                                Em                         D
Shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day 
C                                         G
The burn, and the sting, and the high, and the heat 
             Em                                       D                                      C
and the left-me-wantin'-more feeling when he kissed me 
D                                        C
I shoulda just called him "whiskey" 


C                                             G                         Em          D
Warmed my body to the core just like a blanket 
C                                            G                           Em          D
Tasted so sweet then you took my breath away 
C                                      G       
Hit me so hard like a rock through a window 
Em                                                                  D                 C
i knew i was in trouble from the moment i met you, boy 



C                   G                         Em          D
Shoulda just called it like i saw it 
C                    G                                Em                         D
Shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day 
C                                         G
The burn, and the sting, and the high, and the heat 
             Em                                       D                                      C
and the left-me-wantin'-more feeling when he kissed me 
D                                        C
I shoulda just called him "whiskey" 


C          
Now the numb set in 
G
He's gone like the wind 
Em                             D
and I can barely feel the pain 


C                   G                         Em          D
Shoulda just called it like i saw it 
C                    G                                Em                         D
Shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day 
C                                         G
The burn, and the sting, and the high, and the heat 
             Em                                       D                                      C
and the left-me-wantin'-more feeling when he kissed me 
D                                        C
I shoulda just called him "whiskey" 


C                                         G
The burn, and the sting, and the high, and the heat 
             Em                                       D                                      C
and the left-me-wantin'-more feeling when he kissed me 
D                                        C
