The Way That I Am chords

[D]
I work all [E] day like a dog just to [G] make a dime.
[A] Uncle Sam doesn't take any cents to my [Em] two [D] ex-wives.
All that I need is a small bag of weed [G] and a friend.
[D]
[A] A place we can go where the beer is ice cold,
and the women don't care where [D] you've been.
Cause I've been through hell, I've been locked [G] up in jail,
left out [A] in the cold.
I've been drunk, [Am] I've [D] been stoned,
going out of my mind, one night stand [G] at a time.
[C] [A] I need a lady to hold me as long as she leaves in the morning.
Cause I won't be changing her name or the way that [D] I am.
This whiskey bottle in my hand is [G] going dry.
[Gm] [G]
[A] There ain't enough whiskey in this bottle to get her off [D] my mind.
I know I'm to blame for living on some old [G] bar stool.
[A] I ain't a good girl and this world's gonna put up with the crazy [Am] things [D] I do.
Cause I've been through hell, I've been locked up [G] in jail,
left out in [A] the cold.
I've been drunk, [Am] I've [D] been stoned,
going out of my mind, [Dm]
[D] one night stand [G] at a time.
[A] I need a lady to hold me as long as she leaves in the morning.
Cause I won't be changing her name or the way that [D] I am.
[C]
[Gm]
[D]
[C]
[G]
[Em]
And [D]
[A] there ain't no use in pretending there'll be some happy ending.
Cause I won't be changing her name or the [D] way that I am.
