Gimme whiskey in the morning,

gimme snap backs and cracker jacks

and the moon’s as big as moon pies
       D
rising high in that Marlboro light sky,
    C                G
And I will bring you peaches

I hope I’m getting good at loving,

I’ll tell you about them good ole days

when Richard Petty ran the raceway,

and he was king and I was prince
     D
only problem is I wasn’t born back then
    C                   G
and you were just smoke rising high,
     C              G
your parents didn’t know but I

knew that I was meant to love you babe.

and you can drag your needle
          D
across my heart,
    C            G
and cross-stitch upon my skin
     C               G
when I get cross and don’t give in,

babe, I need your name upon my arm.

Verse 5:
G
Stay under these sheets with me
    C                 G
and be the place that we should be
     C                    G
I’ll be the briars in the berry patch
    D
and pull them ole blue jeans on back.
    C               G
and I will be your “Huckleberry”
   C                G
or whatever country song you care,

G
The sun has dropped itself on me,
       C                G
you’re sweeter than the sweetest thing
  C                G
I see your face on every sign
D
up 181
        C              G
and the muscadines all have your smile,
          C              G
so I just keep one in my mouth most times
    C                       D         G
and go out looking for that wholesome seed.

I hope I’m getting good at letting you love me.
C               G
I ain’t good at much of nothing,
  C                G
I hope I’m getting good at loving,
  C                G               D        G
