| G5 | - | - | - |
[Verse 1]
D
When it comes to
Hitchin' the boat up
Backin' down the ramp
In my old truck
G5
To find a bunch of logs
To catch a bunch of hogs
Yeah, I wrote the book
D
Yeah, I wrote the book
If you wanna learn
To throw a curve right
Сatch a clean up
Lookin' on a third strike
G5
Talk a little smack
While he's walkin' back
Yeah, I wrote the book
[Chorus]
D
But there's one that lays by еhe lamp on the nightstand
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
G5
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
D
But damn if I don't do it every Friday night
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
Ain't gettin' read enough to
G5
Keep me on a straight line
I'm a Jack of all trades
But man I gotta say
D
That's one book I didn't write
[Verse 2]
D
I met a good girl
She had her life straight
She said she loved that I was good at everythin'
G5
One day she left me in a cloud of dust
'Cause I never was too good at pickin' up
[Chorus]
D
The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
G5
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
D
But damn if I don't do it every Friday night
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
Ain't gettin' read enough to
G5
Keep me on a straight line
I'm a Jack of all trades
But man I gotta say
That's one book I didn't write
[Bridge]
D G5 D
Yeah the good Lord knows I need it
G5
I didn't write it but I probably oughta read it
[Chorus]
D
The one that lays by the lamp on the nightstand
One that says don't cuss and don't fight
G5
Or let the bottle turn you into a different man
D
But damn if I don't do it every Friday night
Those get you into Heaven letters in red
Ain't gettin' read enough to

Keep me on a straight line
I'm a Jack of all trades

That's one book I didn't write
[Outro]

That's one book I didn't write
