🎸 Verse :

       Dm       F
Little bit of a blessing
C        Dm
a bit of a curse
          Dm           F
We try to push towards better but
     C          Dm
it's strayed to worse
            G
So lay your head on my shoulder,

don't hear those words
   F           C
It read like a blessing though
             Dm
it speak the curse



🎸 Verse :

         Dm           F
He had a mouth like a pocket of
C       Dm
Shotgun shells
        Dm             F
I don't think he means harm but
    C       Dm
I'm nervous still
      G
Cause I get a notion when your

daddy's looking at me
    Dm          F           C  Dm
I'd rather be a son than an enemy
    Dm          F           C  Dm
I'd rather be a son than an enemy
    Dm          F           C  Dm
I'd rather be a son than an enemy
    F           C    Dm
I'd rather be a son

🎸 Verse :

      Dm        F          C          Dm
Well
I can't deny that mistakes were done
            Dm    F       C       Dm
But I never had a plan to hurt no one
          G
And I'm a real hard worker when

I find it, sir
        F          C
And I'm real smart talker when
             Dm
I mind my my words



🎸 Verse :

     Dm           F
In a town full of prophets and
C        Dm
Poisoned wells
           Dm              F
You hear a lot of "they're both
      C       Dm
Gonna burn in heck"
          G
So if the talk at your daddy's

BPOE can't stay off my name
         Dm       F
It's the same old talk from
     C          Dm
Your granddad's mouth
      F          C         Dm
'bout where they place the blame

🎸 Verse :


       Dm       F
Little bit of a blessing
C        Dm
a bit of a curse
     Dm     F
This son of ours and
    C          Dm
The whole dang world
            G
So lay your head on my shoulder and

Don't hear those words
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
Reads a curse
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
reads a curse
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
Reads a curse
   F          C        Dm
It might be a blessing
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
reads a curse
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
reads a curse
   Dm         F
It might be a blessing though it
C       Dm
