Intro - | Am | C | G | G | x3
Both c[Am]ame from the eastern shore
[C] Where the sun never [G]sinks
You said [Am]Carolina ain't no place
[C] For a Man to be a [G]Man
Thought I [Am]know what You meant by that
[C] Though I never really a[G]sked
[Am] What was between Us
[C] No words seem to [G]fit
And they [Am]say it's just a fool
Who loves a [C]Man that loves a gun,like [G]Yourself
But I [Am]swear I love the best of You
The [C]rest of You is whiskey and a [G]sin
| Am | C | G | G | x2
I never [Am]knew what it did to You
[C] The night that We l[G]eft
The [Am]kids and I grabbed all the clothes
[C] That We could carry on Our [G]backs
You know a [Am]fist is like a gun
[C] But that ain't no way to [G]live
A p[Am]art of You I thought I knew
That [C]simple man Wasn't [G]there
And they [Am]say it's just a fool
Who loves a [C]man that loves a gun,like [G]Yourself
But I [Am]swear I love the best of You
The [C]rest of You is whiskey and a [G]sin
| Am | C | G | G | x2
Oh................
Now I [Am]sit and listen to Your Daughter
[C] Sing a tune that She p[G]enned
H[Am]ard for Me to sit there
The m[C]emories come back washing [G]in
And through the [Am]rise and fall of Her voice
I h[C]ere You calling out My na[G]me
you know Your [Am]blood runs though the both of Us
Your [C]blood runs through most of everyt[G]hing
And they [Am]say it's just a fool
Who loves a [C]man that loves a gun,like [G]Yourself
But I [Am]swear I love the best of You
The [C]rest of You is whiskey and a [G]sin
