This is a great song that Chris wrote when he was 19. He recorded it a while ago with
his band, Stiff Whisker and the Driftwood Kids. Youtube the song to get strum patterns
and rhythm! Capo the 3rd fret!

Cadd11
Feelin' thick like the mist on a summer road
C/G
Feelin' sick got the highs and the lows
Cadd11
And this hope like a shadow of rain
C/G
You know it's gone like the girl I never could change
Cadd11
Straighten out the wheel and I close my eyes
C/G
Dropped away I feel oh baby reckless and blind
Cadd11
Double dare this world to let the bullets fly
C/G
Cause I'm down and I'm out
Cadd11
I'm never gonna die
Am
And this sweat it breaks
G
My hands they are shakin' I
Cadd11
Shoulda done the right thing babe I
Am
Woulda done the right thing but it takes
G
A stronger man
Cadd11
To know what's the right thing I didn't
C/G
Know what the right thing was
What's the price of love it's everywhere I go
Like it comes along when you just don't care anymore
And it goes away like a shadow of rain
An even trade one I have glady made and I'll make again
If everything goes well I'll be givin' in
To some senorita's spell and I'll think of pain
Just how far away it feels oh God
It's nippin' at my heels
And this sweat it breaks
My hands they are shakin' I
Shoulda done the right thing babe I
Woulda done the right thing but it takes
A stronger man
To know what's the right thing I didn't
Know what the right thing was
Am
Oh but next time around
G
Oh God it won't be long I
Cadd11
Always do the wrong things right I
Am
Always do the right things wrong and it takes
G
A stronger man
Cadd11
To know what's the right thing I didn't
C/G
Know what the right thing was
Cadd11 C/G
Oh what it was
Cadd11 C/G
Oh Lord I tried to do the right thing now
Cadd11
Oh Lord I tried to do the right thing now
End on C/G
