These are the right cords... I got them off her video
(it showed them so it wasn't a guessing game).
Capo- 3rd fret
-Verse 1-
[G]Found a piece of candy on the floor
[C]and I couldn't resist but t[D]aste it
[G]Momma wanted to smack me
and that's when [C]I made up my mind and I a[D]te it
[Em]and I have to admit it
[D]tasted better than the ones in the [C]kitchen cupboard[G]
-Verse 2-
[G]Every night I'd look out the bedroom window and wo[C]nder what it's li[D]ke to run away
[G]Daddy told me he would hit me if I did i[C]t so I made up my mind [D]and I ran away
[Em]and I have to admit it[D] wasn't as scary as I thought it w[C]ould be
-Chorus-
[C]What doesn't kill you makes you s[D]ick
and if you[Em]'re sick you learned a[G] lesson
[C]and with every lesson you g[D]et wiser (wi[Em]ser)[G]
[C]So I figure that it [D]pays to cross the lin[Em]e
and eat [G]a little dirt someti[C]mes
[D] [Em] [G]
-Verse-
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/susan_justice/eat_dirt_crd.html )
[G]I found a book about mystical things but m[C]omma said it's against[D] our religion
[G]So late at night I'd read it anyways and that was the [C]last time I asked f[D]or permission
[Em]and I have to admit that [D]I don't regret te[C]lling her lies 'cause it opened my eyes
-Chorus-
[C]What doesn't kill you makes you s[D]ick
and if you[Em]'re sick you learned a[G] lesson
[C]and with every lesson you g[D]et wiser (wi[Em]ser)[G]
[C]So I figure that it [D]pays to cross the lin[Em]e
and eat [G]a little dirt someti[C]mes
-Bridge-
[Am]I won't let my years [F]go to waste liv[Em]ing in a cage
this pr[G]odigal child will always stray[C]
I got over the stomach[D] ache
wiped the mud of[Em]f my face 'cause th[G]is world belongs to the[C] brav[D]e[C]
-Chorus-
[C]What doesn't kill you makes you s[D]ick
and if you[Em]'re sick you learned a[G] lesson
[C]and with every lesson you g[D]et wiser (wi[Em]ser)[G]
[C]So I figure that it [D]pays to cross the lin[Em]e
and eat [G]a little dirt s[C]ometimes ('caus[D]e this world belongs to the brav[Em]e)
and eat [G]a little dirt s[C]ometimes ('caus[D]e this world belongs to the brav[Em]e)
[G]and eat a little dirt s[C]ometim[D]es[Em][G]
-Ending verse-
[C]Found a piece of [D]candy on the flo[Em]or[G]
