You know just the other morning,
F C F C
I was hanging around in my house.
C F
I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked,
C F C
I was checkin' it out.
G F
Just then a friend of mine came through the door,
G F
Said she never pegged me for a scumbag before,
G F
She said she didn't ever want to see me any more,
C G
And I still don't know why.
C F
I think I'm am alright guy
C F
I think I'm am alright guy
G
I just want to live until I've gotta die
F
I know I ain't perfect,
F
But God knows I try
C F
I think I'm an alright guy
C
I think I'm alright
C
Now maybe I'm dirty,
F C F C
And maybe I smoke a little dope.
C F
It ain't like I'm going on TV
C F C
And tearing up pictures of the Pope.
G F
I know I get wild and I know I get drunk,
G F
Well, it ain't like I got a bunch of bodies in my trunk.
G F
My old man used to call me a no good punk,
C G
And I still don't know why.
(Chorus)
C
You know, just the other night
F C F C
These cops pulled me over outside a bar.
C
They turned on their lights
F C F C
And they ordered me out of my car.
G
Man, I was only kidding
F
When I called them a couple of dicks,
G F
But still they made me do the stupid human tricks,
G F
Now I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of dumb hicks,
C G
And I still don't know why.
(Chorus)
