[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A
I don’t run from guilt you see
C
My conscience lets me know
G D
At least a thousand times or better everyday
A
Things I’ve done mistakes I’ve made
C
Raised feelings I’ll lay in some grave
G D
If ever I am finally laid to rest
A C
If there is time to pray before I die I pray Dear Lord
G
You know that I was a righteous man
D
That somehow lost his way
A
Face me down when I shall pass
C
Just so the world can kiss my ass
G D
And hell can’t come get me from behind
[Chorus]
A C
I’ve danced in the flames and I’ve been burned
G
I’ve walked on the harder side of life
D
Of taking all the wrong turns
A C G D
I’ve been around I’ve been down And I’ve been wasted
A C
I fight with myself sometimes I lose
G D
I got me an angel on my shoulder but I got the devil too
A C G D
I get down I get around And I get wasted
[Verse 2]
A
Twenty-seven years along
C
I’ve tried to make them right all wrong
G D
And I’ve nearly died a few times on my way
A
I’ve seen the face of God first hand
C
I’ve danced with the devil man
G D
I’ve needed help grabbed for both their hands
[Chorus]
A C
I’ve danced in the flames and I’ve been burned
G
I’ve walked on the harder side of life
D
Of taking all the wrong turns
A C G D
I’ve been around I’ve been down And I’ve been wasted
A C
I fight with myself sometimes I lose
G D
I got me an angel on my shoulder but I got the devil too
A C G D
I get down I get around And I get wasted
[Break]
