G
Ain't ashamed of where I'm from or where I've been
Well, I'm still my daddy's angel,
but my halo's kinda bent
      C
Been washed in the mud of the Mississippi
Southern-fried, dropped-in-the-grease kinda hippie
Lipstick on a cigarette, throwin' back whiskey
  D
What you see is what you get

Chorus:
      G                                   C
If I look a little drunk, it's 'cause I drank some
       G                                  D
If my neck's a little red, it's 'cause I am one
          G                             C
Heaven's where I'm gonna go, the Bible says
so on my shelf
           G                           D
But if I smell like smoke, it's only 'cause
                   G
I've been through hell

I let a blue-eyed two-timin'
devil kiss me on the mouth
Had me up on a homegrown high
'fore it all went south
It burned me like a mess of cornbread in a skillet
Left me with a heartbreak, I don't wanna feel it
Can I bum another one of them cowboy killers?
Hit me with the good stuff now

Chorus:
If I I look a little drunk, it's 'cause I drank some
If my neck's a little red, it's 'cause I am one
Heaven's where I'm gonna go,
the Bible says so on my shelf
But if I smell like smoke,
it's only 'cause I've been

 C
Hell and back again
  G
Tryin' like hell to get over him
       C
I can tell it's gonna take some time
            D
But you can bet your ass I'm gonna be just fine

Chorus:
If I I look a little drunk,
it's 'cause I drank some (All night)
If my neck's a little red,
it's 'cause I am one (Damn right)
Heaven's where I'm gonna go,
the Bible says so on my shelf
And if I smell like smoke
I'ma light it up
Aw, yeah, and I'ma let it go
It's only 'cause I've been through hell
