Capo 2nd Fret

D              G
No I ain't had nothing to drink
A                                 D
I knew thats probably what youl'd think
G                            D
If i dropped by this time of night
D                 G
Remember way back when
A                      D
I promised you that i'd drop in
G               A                    D
At one of those meetings down at the Y
      G                                  A
Well, they started talkin bout steps you take
D            A
Mistakes you make
     D           G
The hearts you break
        D         G
And the price you pay
         A
I almost walked away
                G
You could hear a pin drop
      A
When this old man
D                  A                  D  G
stood up and said I'm gonna say it again
         D       G
Like I do every week
                   A
For those who dont know me

D               G
It's the simple things in life
         A                         D
Like the kids at home and a loving wife
          G                            A
That you miss the most, when you lose control
         G                             A
And everything you love starts to disappear
      D                      A        D      G
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
        D          G             A
Have another shot, just one more beer
     G               A         D
Yah, Ive been there, thats why I'm here

     (Repeat rythm with rest of Lyrics)

This old boy stood up in the isle
said he'd been living a life of denial
And he cried as he talked about wasted years
I couldn't believe what i heard
It was my life word for word
And all of a sudden it was clear

  (repeat chorus)

G                           A
I know for us it may be too late
             G
But it would mean the world to me
            D
If you were there when I stand to say

     (repeat chorus)
