[INTRO]
Cm D# A# Fm x2
[VERSE ONE]
Cm D# A# Fm Simple as my mama said when I was very young
Cm D# A# Fm She told me, "Not to worry, son, one day, you'll be someone"
Cm D# A# Fm But here I Am at twenty one as loaded as a stagecoach shotgun
Cm D# A# Fm I'm sorry, Mama, please don't look at me
[VERSE TWO]
Cm D# When I got to Oklahoma, I was seventeen
A# Fm My papa taught me how to work, and Lord, he was mean
Cm D# Workin' all day in that August heat
A# Fm And he taught me how to fish, my uncle taught me how to drink
[VERSE THREE]
Cm D# Well, I went to California and I had me a band
A# Fm And we played in all the bars in all the southern lands
Cm D# We played all night and we drank for free
A# Fm All of my boys and me
[CHORUS]
Cm D# Now I'm twenty three
A# Fm And thеre ain't nobody who can drink like me
Cm D# Soon, I'll bе twenty four
A# Fm And the Lord knows that I can't drink no more
Cm D# I know I shoulda taken it slow
A# Fm Cm D# It's not the way that my life goes
A# Fm Now I know
Cm D# A# When you're passed out on the floor
Fm Cm You're sober by twenty four
[INSTRUMENTAL]
Cm D# A# Fm
[VERSE FOUR]
Cm D# Well, I had a girl who loved me the whole damn time
A# Fm And I'd drink my whiskey and she'd drink wine
Cm D# A# Fm But soon, my bottle was too much to company
[VERSE]
Cm D# Yeah, we'd sit on the river and we'd fish all day
A# Fm And we'd drive across the country, let the radio play
Cm D# A# Fm Seven damn years, I never thought she'd leave
[CHORUS]
Cm D# Now I'm twenty three
A# Fm And thеre ain't nobody who can drink like me
Cm D# Soon, I'll bе twenty four
A# Fm And the Lord knows that I can't drink no more
Cm D# I know I shoulda taken it slow
A# Fm Cm D# It's not the way that my life goes
A# Fm Now I know
Cm D# A# When you're passed out on the floor
Fm Cm You're sober by twenty four
[OUTRO]
Cm D# A# Fm Simple as my mama said when I was very young
