D G
Well I shoulda known better with a friend like you
A D
You'd get me in trouble like you always do
G
Drop by the house to write a song or two
A D
Then we wind up drunk in the afternoon
G A
And we tell a joke, light up a smoke
D G
Laugh about how we're both so broke
D A
And tell each other we're gonna make it someday
G A
One verse to go, and even though
D G
They'll never play us on the radio
D A D
Hell we ain't in it for the money anyway
Well our friends are all working and they don't understand
Creative juices flow from a 12-oz can
A pile of empties when the day is through
Well I shoulda known better with a friend like you
(repeat chorus)
Well I better sober up, I've got a gig tonight
You said "Have another" and I said "Alright"
Well I missed my gig, now I guess I'm screwed
Shoulda known better with a friend like you
(repeat chorus)
