I was fifteen when my daddy’s old man
C9 G D (Dsus4)
Caught me half way through my first beer
C9 G G9/F# G
He laughed so hard when my face turned green
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
He said ?You come from a long line of sinners like me?
C9 G G9/F# G
Now me and my brother Go to see him some times
C9 G D (Dsus4)
But he don’t have much to say anymore
C9 G G9/F# G
So we sit on his headstone with a fifth of Jack D.
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
Here’s to a long line of sinners like me
C9 G
La de dah de dah
G9/F# G
La de dah dah de de
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
I come from a long line of sinners like me
My mama had a soft spot for a hell raisin’ boy
So she had two more just like him
It takes an angel to raise a family
That comes from a long line of sinners like me
Well now maybe who knows one day I’ll settle down
Give my dad a grandson of his own
And when the doctor smacks him, he’ll probably take a swing
Cause he’ll come from a long line of sinners like me
La de dah de dah
La de dah dah de de
I come from a long line of sinners like me
On the day I die
I know where I’m gonna Go
Me and Jesus got that part worked out
I’ll wait at the gates til his face I see
And stand in a long line of sinners like me
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
I’ll stand in a long line of sinners like me
C9 G
La de dah de dah
G9/F# G
La de dah dah de de
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
I come from a long line of sinners like me
C9 G
La de dah de dah
G9/F# G
La de dah dah de de
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
Here’s to a long line of sinners like me
C9/B G9/F# C9 G
I come from a long line of sinners like me
