🎸 Intro:

C    Cmaj7  C
F    Fmaj7  F




🎸 Verse :
C
 When it comes to hitchin' the boat up
Cmaj7                 C
Backin' down the ramp in my old truck
F                                            Fmaj7
To find a bunch of logs, to catch a bunch of hogs
                   F                       C
Yeah
I wrote the book, yeah
I wrote the book

C
If you wanna learn to throw a curve right

Catch a clean up lookin' on a third strike
 F                  Fmaj7
Talk a little smack while he's walkin' back
                   F
Yeah
I wrote the book


🎸 Chorus:
             C
But there's one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
 C
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
F                          Fmaj7
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
                    F                   C
But damn if I don't do it every Friday night

 C
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
 C                                                  F
Ain't gettin' read enough to keep me on a straight line

I'm a Jack of all trades, but man I gotta say
                          C    C
That's one book I didn't write




🎸 Verse :
C
I met a good girl, she had her life straight

She said she loved that I was good at everything
 F
One day she left me in a cloud of dust

'Cause I never was too good at pickin' up


🎸 Chorus:
     C
The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
 C
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
F
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
                                        C
But damn if I don't do it every Friday night

 C
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
 C                                                  F
Ain't gettin' read enough to keep me on a straight line

I'm a Jack of all trades, but man I gotta say
                          C
That's one book I didn't write

🎸 Chorus:
     C
The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
 C
