[Intro]
C Cmaj7 C
F Fmaj7 F
[Verse]
C
When it comes to hitchin' the boat up
Cmaj7 C
Backin' down the ramp in my old truck
F
To find a bunch of logs,
Fmaj7
to catch a bunch of hogs
F
Yeah, I wrote the book, yeah,
C
I wrote the book
C
If you wanna learn to throw a curve right
Catch a clean up lookin' on a third strike
F Fmaj7
Talk a little smack while he's walkin' back
F
Yeah, I wrote the book
[Chorus]
C
But there's one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
C
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
F
Or let the bottle turn you
Fmaj7
into a different man
F
But dang if I don't do it
C
every Friday night
C
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
C
Ain't gettin' read enough to
F
keep me on a straight line
I'm a Jack of all trades, but man I gotta say
C C
That's one book I didn't write
[Verse]
C
I met a good girl, she had her life straight
She said she loved that I was good at everything
F
One day she left me in a cloud of dust
'Cause I never was too good at pickin' up
[Chorus]
C
The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
C
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
F
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
But dang if I don't do it
C
every Friday night
C
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
C
Ain't gettin' read enough to

keep me on a straight line
I'm a Jack of all trades, but man I gotta say

The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
C
One that says don't cuss and don't fight

Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
But dang if I don't do it
C

Those get you into Heaven letters in red
