At one of those meetings down at the Y
G A
Well, they started talkin bout steps you take
D A
Mistakes you make
D G
The hearts you break
D G
And the price you pay

A D
Like the kids at home and a loving wife
G A
That you miss the most, when you lose control
G A
And everything you love starts to disappear
D A D G
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
D G A
Have another shot, just one more beer

Like the kids at home and a loving wife
