Chords with lyrics

INTRO:
E MajorE E7E7 E MajorE

Verse:
E MajorE
He wasn't really known for breaking the rules
             Bm7add4      A augmentedA
When he arrived in the second year of my high school
E MajorE
He wasn't so much of a twist of fate
    BB
As a short turn up from a Southern state
    E MajorE
He was born with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat
         Bm7add4       A augmentedA
Always trying to find himself something sweet
E MajorE
All that he found was a trouble and me
     BB
Or maybe trouble just found him

Verse 2:
E MajorE
It was hard to hide that his heart had scars
         Bm7add4     A augmentedA
He would stay up late talking to the stars
E MajorE
People tried to blame him for making bad choices
   BB
When he was only listening to the voices
E MajorE
And looking for some kind of deeper truth
              Bm7add4    A augmentedA
Between the lines and the Bible and living proof
E MajorE
There's no point now to judge him in vain
    BB
If you haven't been there, you don't know the pain

Chorus 1:
E MajorE
He was a liar, but not a fraud
BB            E MajorE
Living proof that there was no God
A augmentedA
Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
 BB      A augmentedA   E MajorE
A augmentedA slave to the sugartooth

  E MajorE
His life became more than he could take
        Bm7add4    A augmentedA
He found a bad habit he couldn't break
E MajorE
Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him
BB
He only took the pills when the doctor told him
E MajorE
Looking too hard for that something sweet
      Bm7add4      A augmentedA
To make his life feel less incomplete
E MajorE
What in the hell are you gonna do
BB
When the world has made its mind up about you?

Chorus 2:
E MajorE
He was a liar, but not a fraud
BB            E MajorE
Living proof that there was no God
A augmentedA
Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
 BB      A augmentedA   E MajorE
A augmentedA slave to the sugartooth

C# minorC#m
He wanted to be a better man
      BB            E MajorE     A augmentedA
Then life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back
  BB     A augmentedA  E MajorE
If not for a sugartooth

Verse 3:
E MajorE
They found him lying on his bed
          Bm7add4     A augmentedA
With a gun in his hand and a quiet head
E MajorE
His broken heart, now, is finally gone
BB
But I know that he had to hurt for too long
E MajorE
To think he had fought it all on his own
         Bm7add4     A augmentedA
Just to lose the battle and die alone
E MajorE
After so many years of feeling lost
  BB        A augmentedA   BB   E MajorE
He finally made his way back home

Verse 4:
   E MajorE
And I heard they put what was left in a box
         Bm7add4   A augmentedA
And took it to a place called Jesus Rock
  E MajorE
And scattered him all over jagged mound
   BB
As a symbol to all that the piece had been found
  E MajorE
But not for a son who's left behind
        Bm7add4     A augmentedA
With a hand stuck reaching back in time
E MajorE
To a place in which you can never unwind
      BB
I hope he found something so sweet

Chorus 2:
E MajorE
He was a liar, but not a fraud
BB            E MajorE
Living proof that there was no God
A augmentedA
Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
 BB      A augmentedA   E MajorE
A augmentedA slave to the sugartooth

C# minorC#m
He wanted to be a better man
      BB            E MajorE     A augmentedA
Then life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back
  BB     A augmentedA  E MajorE
If not for a sugartooth


Outro:
E MajorE  Bm7add4 A augmentedA   E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth
E MajorE  Bm7add4 A augmentedA   E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth
E MajorE  Bm7add4 A augmentedA   E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth
E MajorE  Bm7add4 A augmentedA   E MajorE    BB    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth
