C G Am Em



♫ Verse :
                  C            G
Wasn't tryin' to meet nobody, see nobody
          Am               Em
What I've got goin' on's a lot for somebody
    C                    G
To deal with 'cause the deal is
           Am              Em
I'm still sweepin' up the pieces

♫ Pre-Chorus:
            C                           G
I was just looking for a lighter and a smoke
                 Am                  Em
You were lookin' too, try to get to know my name
           C
Where I'm from, what I'm thinkin'

G                   D
So if you wanna be more than a weekend


♫ Chorus:
                   C
Please excuse the mess
   G                     Am
I know I'm a little bit everywhere
           Em                   C
There's a hell of a fire in my chest
            G                     Am
That ain't been put out, but I'm gettin' there

   Em                        C                G
I know I should clean up my act, clean up my mind
               Am                        Em
So watch your step if you're steppin' inside

       C               G                  Am
Ain't cared enough to pick it up yet, so until then
 Em                C  G  Am Em
Please excuse the meeess




♫ Verse :
             C                    G
Most people try to seem perfect, smile on the surface
         Am                   Em
But the wine and the want-to both ain't workin'
C                    G                           D
I apologize for the wreck you might find, might need a little time

           Em                   C
There's a hell of a fire in my chest
            G                     Am
That ain't been put out, but I'm gettin' there

   Em                        C                G
I know I should clean up my act, clean up my mind
               Am                        Em
So watch your step if you're steppin' inside
