Startin With Me

Intro: G Em

I had a one night stand with my best friend's baby sister
Em
To this day he still won't speak to me

I pawned my grandpa's old guitar in college

For a case of beer and a tank of gasoline

I took a swing at my old man one Christmas

I never dreamed that it would be his last

I wish mom had rung my neck when she caught me with those cigarettes
D
Which reminds me, I'm down to my last pack

If I had a dime, for half the things I did
  C                     
That didn't make no sense at all, 
                                D
I'd be livin' a little higher on the hog
G                           Bm
If only I'd a known, that later on down the road

I'd look back and not like what I see
    Am                        E           G
I'd a changed a lot of things, startin' with me

G
I called my brother everything I could think of
Em
The night he wouldn't bail me out of jail
C
I lost a job most folks 'round here would die for
D
By layin' out all night and raisin' hell

G
I let a woman that I love slip through my fingers
Em
Chalk another dumb move up to my foolish pride
C
I wasn't there standin' by the bed, when the preacher bowed his head
D
With the family, the day my grandma died
