Dont Tell Mama I Was Drinkin

	  		Verse 1 
      F 
I was headed north on highway 5 
     A# 
On a starlit summer night 
       C                              F 
When a pickup truck flew by me out of control 
     F 
As I watched in my headlights 
           A# 
He swerved left and then back right 
         C                             F 
He never hit the brakes as he left the road 
 
Verse 2 
I found him lying in the grass 
Among the steel and glass 
With an empty whisky bottle by his side 
Through the blood tears 
He whispered in my ear 
A few last words just before he died 
 
tabchorus
F A# Dont tell mama I was drinkin F C Lord knows her soul would never rest F A# I cant leave this world with mama thinkin C F That I met the lord with whiskey on my breath

Verse3 I still think about that night And how that young man died And how others sometimes pay for our mistakes The last thing on his mind As he left this world behind Was knowing someone elses heart would break Chorus
