Dont Tell Mama I Was DrinkingCifra de Teclado

Intro: 


Verse: 
F# 
I was headed north on Highway 5 
B 
On a starlit Sunday night 
        Db                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 

      Db   
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 
        Db             B             F# 
With an empty whiskey bottle by his side 

      F# 
And through the blood and tears,  
     B 
He whispered in my ear 
  Db              
A few last words  
 B              F# 
Just before he died 


And he said,  
  F#                     B 
'Don't tell mama I was drinking 
            F# 
Cause Lord knows  
                           Db 
That her soul would never rest 

    F# 
And I can't leave this world  
               B 
With my mama thinking 

       Db 
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 
    Db                B 
How others sometimes pay  
         F# 
For our mistakes 

          F# 
Well the last thing on his mind 
       B 
As he left this world behind 
     Db             B                   F# 
Was knowing someone else's heart would break 


And he says  
  F#                     B 
'Don't tell mama I was drinking 
            F# 
Cause Lord knows  
                           Db 
That her soul would never rest 

       F# 
No, I can't leave this world  
               B 
With my mama thinking 

       Db 
That I met the Lord  
       B             F# 
With whiskey on my breath' 

Woho woh woh 



Instrumental/Solo:

Db        B      F# 
Oh oh    woh woh 


  F#                     B       
'Don't tell mama I was drinking 
            F# 
Cause Lord knows  
                           Db 
That her soul would never rest 

    F# 
No, I can't leave this world  
               B 
With my mama thinking no 

       Db 
That I met the Lord  
       B             F# 
With whiskey on my breath 

       Db 
That I met the Lord  
       B             F#     B  F# 
With whiskey on my breath'
