^G I was headed north on highway five/ on a star-lit Sundaynight/ When a pick-up
truck
flew by me out of c ^C ontrol/ As I watched in my headlights/ He swerved left
then back
^G right/ He never hit the brakes as he left the ^D road/ I found ^G him lying in the
grass/
Among the steel ^D and glass/ Wi ^G th an empty whiskey bottle by his side/ And
through
the blood ^D and tears/ He whis ^G perd in my ear/ A few last words just before he
died/
chorus
NC C G
Don't tell Ma ^D ma I wa ^G s drinkin'/ Lord knows her soul would never rest/ I
can't leave
this world with ^G Mama thinkin' / I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath
^{G C G} I still think about that night/ and how that young man died/ And how others
somtimes
pay for our mistakes/ T ^G he last thing on his mind/ As he left this world
behind/ Was
knowing someone elses heart would b ^D reak/ (repeat ch ^G orus)
