         C#                    F#           C#
I was a bad reputation with an attitude to match
                                F#
Hell bent on goin' nowhere and gettin' there
           C#
lightning fast
                                   F#
Twenty-one and looking thirty, but acting half
   C#
my age
                             F#            C#
Bound to hit a wall before I ever hit the brakes

Chorus:
 F#             C#
Codeine, it got Elvis
 F#              C#
Whiskey, it got Hank
  F#              C#
I always thought something like that
      A#m           G#
Might send me on my way
     F#               C#
But you took hold of me
     F#      G#    A#m
Like only a woman can
     F#            C#
And gave one good reason to live
     G#            C#
To a set-on-dying man

When a Friday meets a Sunday
You can't help but see the light
I never believed in angels
'Til one believed in me that night
Turned my off-track into a straight line
Before I turned into a headline

Chorus:
Like, Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
I always thought somethin' like that
Might send me on my way
But you took hold of me
Like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live
To a set-on-dyin' man

         F#           C#
Turned a one-way man 180
 F#                     C#
Settled down a giving-upper
           F#                     C#
Yeah, you changed and you-can't-change-me
        A#m              G#
So the world won't see another

Chorus:
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
I always thought somethin' like that
Might send me on my way
But you took hold of me
Like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live
To a set-on-dyin' man

A set-on-dyin' man
