       F
I'm a puzzle
      A#                F
I'm a walking contradiction
        A#             F
In far from mint condition
                C              F
'Cause there's pieces I can't find
            F
Sometimes trouble
          A#            F
A can of cope, a day addiction
     A#               F
With set in stone convictions
       C              F
And a no bend bottom line

       Dm               C/E           A#
I'm an easy read but I ain't no open book
       Dm                C     A#
Got a knack for making things harder than they look

Chorus:
        A#
I'm a straight shootin'
 F              C
Beer drinkin', rule breakin'
 F            A#            F              C
Don't think I won't take a good thing too far
       A#           F
I'm a midnightin', backslidin'
 C       F
Getaway car drivin'
 A#        F             C
Runnin' away with your heart
             Dm               C
I guess, be careful what you wish for,
          A#
is all I meant when I said
What you see is what you get

At least I'm honest
I don't spin it like a record
And I ain't acting like I'm better
Than you know I really am
Yeah, you're dead on it
You got me figured, I'll admit it
Set in my ways hard-headed
But hell, I do the best I can

Chorus

      C           A#
With me ain't no tricks up these sleeves
   Dm                 C                A#
An acquired taste, a constant work in progress

Chorus:
I'm a straight shootin'
Beer drinkin', rule breakin'
Don't think I won't take a good thing too far
I'm a midnightin', backslidin'
Getaway car drivin'
Runnin' away with your heart
I guess be careful what you wish for is all
I meant when I said
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get
