Verse 1: 
         E  
      Well i grew up lean and hungry 
       
      I worked hard for my money 
              A                 B                E       
      Said i'm gonna live my life the way i please 
 
      I spent some time on the road of life 
 
      Saw an angel once and the devil twice 
          A                     B                  E   
      I've come across some things that i don't need 


     E            A              E    A              E 
      That say cold hearted women,whiskey in my water 
      C#m             B                E   
      And only one way out of hotel rooms 
         A                 E          A             E 
      Payments on the Cadillac,and too many questions 
      C#m             B             E   
      Guitars that won't stay in tune  
 
Verse 2: 
         E 
      You know there's good and bad breaks 
 
      You learn from your mistakes 
             A               B                     E         
      It's all in how you handle those do's and don'ts 
 
      A country boy is hard to convice 
 
      Wild and stubborn and not much sense 
              A                  B                E         
      But i've got enough to know what i don't want 
 
Chorus. 
      C#m             B             E     
      Guitars that won't stay in tune
