F#
I was headed north on Highway 5
B
On a starlit Sunday night
        C#                B                F#
When a pick-up truck flew by me out of control
      F#
As I watched in my headlights,
     B
He swerved left
And then back right
      C#
Never hit the brakes
B               F#
As he left the road
VERSE:
             F#
I found him lying in the grass
  B
Among the steel and glass
        C#             B             F#
With an empty whiskey bottle by his side
      F#
And through the blood and tears,
     B
He whispered in my ear
  C#
A few last words
 B              F#
Just before he died
CHORUS:
And he said,
  F#                     B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
            F#
Cause Lord knows
                           C#
That her soul would never rest
    F#
And I can't leave this world
               B
With my mama thinking
       C#
That I met the Lord
       B             F#
With whiskey on my breath"
VERSE:
   F#
I still think about that night
     B
And how that young man died
    C#                B
How others sometimes pay
         F#
For our mistakes
          F#
Well the last thing on his mind
       B
As he left this world behind
     C#             B                   F#
Was knowing someone else's heart would break
CHORUS:
And he says
  F#                     B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
            F#
Cause Lord knows
                           C#
That her soul would never rest
       F#
No, I can't leave this world
               B
With my mama thinking
       C#
That I met the Lord
       B             F#
With whiskey on my breath"
Woho woh woh
INSTRUMENTAL/G  O:
B         F#
    Yeah yeah ah ah
C#        B      F#
Oh oh    woh woh
CHORUS:
  F#                     B
"Don't tell mama I was drinking
            F#
Cause Lord knows
                           C#
That her soul would never rest
    F#
No, I can't leave this world
               B
With my mama thinking no
       C#
That I met the Lord
       B             F#
With whiskey on my breath
       C#
That I met the Lord
       B             F#     B  F#
With whiskey on my breath"
