VERSE:
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
Simple as my mama said when I was very young
B minorBm D MajorD
She told me not to worry, son
A augmentedA E minorEm
One day you`ll be someone
B minorBm D MajorD
But here I am at twenty one
A augmentedA E minorEm
As loaded as a stagecoach shotgun
B minorBm
I`m sorry mamma
D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm Em E minorEm Em
Please don`t look at me
VERSE:
B minorBm D MajorD
Yeah, when I got to Oklahoma, I was seventeen
A augmentedA E minorEm
My papa taught me how to work, and Lord, he was mean
B minorBm D MajorD
Workin` all day in that August heat
A augmentedA
And he taught me how to fish
E minorEm E minorEm Em E minorEm
My uncle taught me how to drink
VERSE:
B minorBm D MajorD
Well, I went California and I had me a band
A augmentedA E minorEm
And we played in all the bars in all the Southern lands
B minorBm D MajorD
We played all night and we drank for free
A augmentedA E minorEm Em E minorEm Em
All of my boys and me
CHORUS:
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm
Now I`m 23 and therе ain`t nobody who can drink like me
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA 
E MajorE
Soon I`ll be 24, and thе Lord knows that I can`t drink no more
B minorBm D MajorD
I know I shoulda taken it slow
A augmentedA E MajorE B minorBm D MajorD
It`s not the way that my life goes
A augmentedA E minorEm Em E minorEm Em
Now I know
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA
When you`re passed out on the floor
E minorEm B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm Em E minorEm Em
You’re sober by 24
VERSE:
B minorBm D MajorD
Well, I had a girl who loved me the whole damn time
A augmentedA E MajorE
And I`d drink my whiskey and she`d drink wine
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm Em E minorEm Em
But soon, my bottle was too much to company
B minorBm D MajorD
Yeah, we’d sit on the river and we’d fish all day
A augmentedA E minorEm
And we`d drive across the country, let the radio play
B minorBm D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm

Seven damn years, I never thought she`d leave
