James Acordes

[Intro]
 Ebm
 
[Verse 1]
   B               Dbm       Bbm Ebm
He decided he'd be better off a-lone
       B                Db             Bbm Ebm
So he left his wife and child and went so-lo
      B             Db             Bbm Ebm
It is summertime, Atlanta's hot as he-ll
          B               Db                  Ab
He thinks back to what he had, and where he's now
 
[Chorus]
       Ebm         B    Bbm                B
(Whoo) James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
Ebm     B    Bbm                      B
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies' hearts
Ebm         B     Bbm              B
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
Ebm       B   Bbm                Abm
He can't stop hangin' out in the bars
 
Ebm
        B                  Db              Bbm Ebm
Found a pay phone, and the courage, it did sw-ell
        B               Db               Bbm Ebm
What to say James never really knew that well
        B           Db                   Bbm Ebm
And his apology was more than they could st-and
            B               Db            Bbm Ebm
"I'm just a poor excuse for what some call a man"
 
Ebm         B    Bbm                B
James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
Ebm     B    Bbm                      B
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies' hearts
Ebm         B     Bbm          B
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
Ebm      B    Bbm                Abm
He can't stop hangin' out in the bars
 
[Instrumental]
Abm    Db
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Abm    Db
Oh-oh, ooh
 
      B              Db           Bbm Ebm
"So I want you to be spirited and bra-ve
     B                    Db            Bbm Ebm
Find someone to love, but never take my pl-ace"
            B               Db            Bbm Ebm
He hung the phone up and defeated his own li-fe
     B               Db           Abm
Disappeared into the closest neon sign
 
       Ebm         B    Bbm                B
(Whoo) James can't stop hangin' out in the bars
Ebm     B    Bbm                      B
He's on top, breakin' all the ladies' hearts
Ebm         B     Bbm          B
James ain't got a problem with alcohol
Ebm      B    Bbm                B
He can't stop hangin' out in the bars (Whoo)
 
Ebm         B
James can't stop
 
N.C.
When I walk down this street, I base it on five things: what you say and what you do. You mind your words.
Common sense tells me not to drink
