100 Pencils chords by Walker Hayes

Verse 1
G                            C
 I wanna tell you my feelings
But I'm not good with words
G                             C
 Sat by a smart girl in English
And I cheated off her
Em            D                C
 But I can strum a few chords
Em                     D               C
 And I learned to rhyme from George


Verse 2
G                                        C
 Straight out that 'Bama blue clear sky
D

You roll my tide
G                          C
 And after a couple beers
 D
I let you see what's inside
Em                D           C
 Well girl, I'm sober tonight
Em                       D
 You still make me nervous
 C
So I might not get this right

Chorus
 G                    D
All the Hallmark cards missed the mark
 Em                             C
And all the Walmart flowers were fallin' apart
 C
And I know my voice ain't nothin' special
 D
And this guitar's probably out of tune
 Em
But baby, I broke a hundred pencils
 C
Tryin' to write this song for you
 G                          D
And I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
 Em                             C
If you don't love it, you ain't gotta lie
 G
Just know that it's yours and so

Verse 3
G                             C
 I didn't come from a family
 D
That showed how we felt
G                             C
 I learned the art of pretending
 D
From Bibles and belts
Em                         D                       C
 But you make me wanna make some kids
Em                 D                   C
 Instead of sense and Do it different than they
did


Chorus
 G                    D
All the Hallmark cards missed the mark
 Em                             C
And all the Walmart flowers were fallin' apart
 C
And I know my voice ain't nothin' special
 D
And this guitar's probably out of tune
 Em
But baby, I broke a hundred pencils
 C
Tryin' to write this song for you
 G                          D
And I kinda hoped it'd make you cry
 Em                             C
If you don't love it, you ain't gotta lie
 G
Just know that it's yours and so
So

 And I will until we run out of
Valentine's days

Chorus
 G                    D

If you don't love it, you ain't gotta lie
 G    D               G
Just know that it's yours and so
