The first drop burns but the second one goes down smooth
         C                                   G    G7

      D                                             G
It'll loosen your tongue but it don't ever tell the truth

He talks in the dark like he never would in the day
        D                                           G
Then he gets in trouble just as soon as he gets his way

          C                                      G    G7
When it's making the rounds all over the neighborhood
     D                                 G
Next thing you know you're all misunderstood
