VERSE:
F#
I was headed north on Highway 5
B
On a starlit Sunday night
C# B F#
When a pick-up truck flew by me out of control
F#
As I watched in my headlights,
B
He swerved left
And then back right
C#
Never hit the brakes
B F#
As he left the road
VERSE:
F#
I found him lying in the grass
B
Among the steel and glass
C# B F#
With an empty whiskey bottle by his side
F#
And through the blood and tears,
B
He whispered in my ear
C#
A few last words
B F#
Just before he died
CHORUS:
And he said,
F# B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
F#
Cause Lord knows
C#
That her soul would never rest
F#
And I can't leave this world
B
With my mama thinking
C#
That I met the Lord
B F#
With whiskey on my breath"
VERSE:
F#
I still think about that night
B
And how that young man died
C# B
How others sometimes pay
F#
For our mistakes
F#
Well the last thing on his mind
B
As he left this world behind
C# B F#
Was knowing someone else's heart would break
CHORUS:
And he says
F# B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
F#
Cause Lord knows
C#
That her soul would never rest
F#
No, I can't leave this world
B
With my mama thinking
C#
That I met the Lord
B F#
With whiskey on my breath"
Woho woh woh
INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
B F#
Yeah yeah ah ah
C# B F#
Oh oh woh woh
CHORUS:
F# B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
F#
Cause Lord knows
C#
That her soul would never rest
F#
No, I can't leave this world
B
With my mama thinking no
C#
That I met the Lord
B F#
With whiskey on my breath
C#
That I met the Lord
B F# B F#
With whiskey on my breath"
