[Verse]
G                      D
Just take it, one step at a time darlin’
G
don’t get ahead of yourself
D                    Em
You might break that neck, break those
G               Bm                    Bm
legs, trying to keep up, keep up with me
    G                    D
And no, I’m not going to say that I’m sorry
G                     D
you brought this onto yourself
D                          Em
It’s like you’re chasing a flood,
                 G
and wasting your time
               D                     A
Just trying to keep up, keep up with me


[Chorus]
                          Em                                G
But you say you like the gaps in my teeth, I kinda like the way that sounds
              D                      A
Goddamn I did not get up, for you to break me down
           Em                              G
And you’re breaking my back, like I’m some Rodeo Clown
       D                        A
If you keep me up, I might just stick around


G                   D
Knock ‘em down, and do what you do darlin’
G                                D
It’s when the monster comes out, and that’s when you start to
Em                   G
shout could you ever doubt that I could
D                     Bm
keep up, keep up with you
G                           D
You put the fire right out, the roads callin’
G                         D
I didn’t let the dog out, but I did leave him your
Em                   G
clothes and God only knows, just how you
D                   A
put up, put up with me


[Chorus]
                          Em                                 G
Well you say you like the gaps in my teeth, I kinda like the way that sounds
              D                      A
Goddamn I did not get up, for you to break me down
          Em                                     G
If you’re bending those cheeks, like you’re some Rodeo Clown
            D                  A
If you keep it up, I might not stick around
