Intro
G|G|C|D|G
C
If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough
D G
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up
I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer
C
BUt I know enough to know
D G
If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough
C
I lit my Brain with rot-gut whiskey
D G
Till my pain was chicken fried
C
And I had dudes with badges frisk me
D G
And teach me how to swallow pride
C
I took advice no fool would take
D G
I got some habits I can't shake
