Messed Me Up

Intro 
G    Bm    C   G   C 



[Verso 1]
 
              G 
Well I showed up messed up like Hemingway 
             Bm   G 
Cans falling out your mama's drive 
          C                G 
Stumbled outta my beat-up Chevrolet 

 C                         G 
Heart-broke tears in your eyes 
                 Em7 
You were already gone 
 D                 C 
And I was already drunk 
 


[Refrão]
 
                  G 
But you messed me up, downhill, full throttle 
              Bm    G/B 
You messed me up, I lost my mind 
                C 
If it wasn't enough, goodbye was rock bottom 
          Em                   D 
The man I was wasn't gonna survive

Well, it didn't take taillights and a U-Haul 
              Bm                G/B 
I knew what I had before it was gone 
                      C 
Yeah, all of my boys said it was all your fault 
                                     G 
But I knew you were right and I knew I was wrong 
 


[Refrão]
 
                  G 
And it messed me up, downhill, full throttle 
            G/B 
And girl I damned near lost my mind 
                C 
If it wasn't enough, goodbye was rock bottom 
          Em                   D 
The man I was wasn't gonna survive 

              G 
You messed me up 

Right back to the drawing board 
        Bm               B/D# 
Sobered up and I finally saw the Lord 
      C 
If I thought putting down the bottle was tough 
 Em                   D                 G       Bm   G/B 
Coming down off your love, it messed me up, oh

You messed me up, you saved my life 
            G/B 
I found my knees, you became my wife 

                     C 
Gave me three little Angels, made me better 
               Em              D              G  Bm 
And I wouldn't be here if you never messed me up

G/B        C 
 I sobered up 
               Em               D 
And I saw the light dressed in white 

             G 
It messed me up 
             Bm

             C 
You give me your love

Or give me death
