[Verse]

C
 When it comes to hitchin' the boat up
Cmaj7                 C
Backin' down the ramp in 

my old truck
F                       
To find a bunch of logs, 
                    Fmaj7
to catch a bunch of hogs
                   F         
Yeah, I wrote the book, yeah, 
             C
I wrote the book
 
C
If you wanna learn to throw a curve right
 
Catch a clean up lookin' on a third strike
 F                  Fmaj7
Talk a little smack while 

he's walkin' back
                   F
Yeah, I wrote the book
 
 
[Chorus]

             C
But there's one that lays by 

the lamp on the nightstand
 C
One that says don't cuss 

and don't fight
F                         
Or let the bottle turn you 
Fmaj7
into a different man
                    F    
But dang if I don't do it  
              C
every Friday night          
 
 C
Those get you into 

Heaven letters in red
 C                          
Ain't gettin' read enough to 
                       F
keep me on a straight line
 
I'm a Jack of all trades, 

but man I gotta say
                          C    C
That's one book I didn't write
 
 
[Verse]

C
I met a good girl, 

she had her life straight
 
She said she loved that 

I was good at everything
 F
One day she left me in a 

cloud of dust
 
'Cause I never was 

too good at pickin' up
 
 
[Chorus]

     C
The one that lays by 

the lamp on the nightstand
 C
One that says don't cuss 

and don't fight
F
Or let the bottle turn you 

into a different man
                         
But dang if I don't do it 
              C
every Friday night
 
 C
Those get you into 

Heaven letters in red
 C                         
Ain't gettin' read enough to 
                       F
keep me on a straight line
 
I'm a Jack of all trades, 

but man I gotta say
                          C
That's one book I didn't write

Yeah, the good Lord knows

I didn't write it, but 
                   F
I probably oughta read it
 
 
[Chorus]
