Intro -x4-: A  D

A                     D
I ain't the kind you take home to Mama
 A                  D
I ain't the kind to wear no ring
   A         D
Somehow I always get stronger
  A              D
When I'm on my second drink


Interlude -x2-: A  D


  A               D
Even though I hate to admit it
 A               D
Sometimes I smoke cigarettes
A                       D
The Christian folk say I should quit it
A                   D
I just smile and say, 'God bless'


Interlude: A


Chorus:
      E
Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
      D             A
And I bet we'd get along just fine
          E
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
       D                               A
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine


Interlude -x2-: A  D


 A                   D
Daddy cried when he saw my tattoo
 A                D
Said he loved me anyway
     A               D
My brother got the brains of the family
A                 D
So I thought I'd learn to sing


Interlude: A


Chorus:
      E
Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine
      D             A
And I bet we'd get along just fine
          E
He could calm a storm and heal the blind
       D                               A
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine

Bridge:
              Bm7    A  
Well, I'll flyyyy, awaay 
        Bm7           A
From it all.....  one day
          Bm7            E
And I'll flyyy........ away, 


       A                    D
But these are the days that I will remember
 A                    D
When my name's called on the roll
 A                      D
He'll meet me with two long-stemmed glasses
 A                   D
And make a toast to me coming home

Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind
       D                               A
And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine
