Kip Moore, "Reckless (Still Growin' Up)"
(intro)
F# B C# F#
(verse)
F# B
I spent a summer down south, working for the county, trying to save for school
C# F#
I blew it all like a damn fool on women and beer
F# B
I didn't have the grades but I had myself a major league fastball
C# F#
Got a call from the minor leagues in Wichita and blew out my arm in the first year,
ha-ha, yeah
(instrumental)
F# B C# F#
(verse)
F# B
Well, I took a good look at my life and decided I'd make a change
C# F#
Booked me a flight on an airplane, I was 3rd world Peace Corps bound
F# B
But I met me a stewardess right there in the airport bar
C# F#
Before I knew it I was in her car and never turned around
(chorus)
F# B C# F#
Well, maybe I'm reckless, maybe bad luck, hell maybe I'm way too much about having fun
C# F# B C#
F#
I'll send you a postcard, send me your love, just don't give up on me yet, I'm still
growing up
(verse)
F# G#m
I went to work for my uncle on the coast called the hot spot
A#m F#
We took our breaks on the boat docks and I got fired for smoking pot
F# G#m
with the beach right there I guess surfing was the logical next move
A#m F#
But I got mouthy with the wrong dude and got my damn jaw tattooed

(verse)
F# B
I bought an old guitar with cash from a good hand of blackjack
C# F#
learned a few chords from a fat-back, hairy man named Pete
F# B
I got a local gig on the weekends in some old honky-tonk
C# F#
Singing 2 hours of nothing but Cash songs, and I could always drink for free
F# B
And some so called big-wig, producer man started sniffing 'round
C# F#
He told me he liked my sound but there was something holding me back
F# B
He said a rhinestone suit and a cowboy hat outta do the trick
C# F#
I told him I had something he could stick, way on up his ass
(chorus-bridge)

Well, maybe I'm reckless, maybe bad luck, hell maybe I'm way too much about having fun
