Lyrics

I know how to (F)hold a grudge,

I can send a bridge (C)up in smoke,

’n’ I can’t (Dm)count the peo ple I’ve (Dm)let down, the (Bb)hearts I’ve broke.

You ain’t got ta (F)dig too deep if you wan na find some (C)dirt on me.

But I’m (Dm7)learn in’ who you’ve been ain’t who you’ve (Bb)got ta be.

It’s (F)gon na be an (Gm7)up hill climb.

Oh, hon ey, (F)I won’t lie.

I ain’t no (F)an gel.

I (Bb)still got a few more danc es with the (F)dev il.

I’m (Bb)clean in’ up my act lit tle by (Dm)lit tle.

I’m (C)get tin’ there.

I can (Bb)fi n’ly stand the man in the mir ror I see.

I ain’t as (F)good as I’m (Bb)gon na get, but I’m (C7sus)bet ter than I used to (F)be.

I’ve pinned a lot of de mons (F)to the ground.

Got a few old hab its left.

But there’s still (Dm)one or two I (C)might need you to help me get.

(C7sus)Stand in’ in the (F)rain so long has left me with a (C)lit tle rust.

But put some (Dm)faith in me and some (C)day you’ll see there’s a (Gm7)dia mond un der (F)all this (Bb)dust.

I (Bb)ain’t no (Bb)be.

I ain’t no (F)an gel.

I still got a few more danc es with the (Dm)dev il.

But I’m (Gm7)clean in’ up my act lit (C#dim)tle by (Dm)lit tle.

I’m (C)get tin’ there.

I can (Bb)fi n’ly stand the man in the mir ror I see.

I ain’t as (F)good as I’m (Bb)gon na get, but I’m (C7sus)bet ter than I used

to be.
