I know you hate my drinking and the way I talk sometimes
        B                                 E
But you hate it most when I don't call at nights
                                                       A

And It's just that you're concerned for me, sweet heart I

understand

You do the best you can with who I am

You go to church on Sunday while I'm still home in bed
B                           E
Sleeping of the night I had before
                                                         A
Sometimes you say I'm perfect, and sometimes not worth a damn
           E    A   E        B     E
