(No Capo)
(Intro.)
|(D) / / / |(G) / / / | x 2
(Verse 1)
If (D)he looks like he's bad news
(G)6’5" with a couple tattoos
A (D)smoking habit and a drinking problem
(A) Sounds like he's my prince charming
(Verse 2)
(D)Blames his stuff on his checkered past
Like his (G)DUI from his last relapse
If you (D)spent a couple nights in a county jail
Well (A)somebody get me a wedding veil
(Pre-Chorus)
(NC) I can’t change ‘em, I can’t fix ‘em
But (NC)damn I sure can pick ‘em
(Chorus)
Pick up the (G)tap when they ain’t got a dime
Picking up (D)problems that ain’t even mine
Picking ‘em (A)up even though I know better
I’m just (D)picking up trash and calling it trеasure
I’m (D)picking up trash and calling it treasure
(Solo)
|(D) / / / |(G) / / / |
(Verse 3)
I’vе tried (D)making nice with the yes ma’am types
The (G)kind I know my mama likes
But I like (D)good times not good manners
So I (A)go on back to my low standards
(Chorus)
Pick up the (G)tap when they ain’t got a dime
Picking up (D)problems that ain’t even mine
Picking ‘em (A)up even though I know better
I’m just (D)picking up trash and calling it treasure
I’m (D)picking up trash and calling it treasure
(Solo)
|(D) / / / |(G) / / / |(D) / / / |(G) / / / |
(Bridge)
The (D)liars, the losers
One too (D)many shot of whiskey doers
The (G)prescr i ption pill abusers
Well, I (A)always seem to chose them
(Chorus)
Pick up the (G)tap when they ain’t got a dime
Picking up (D)problems that ain’t even mine
Picking ‘em (A)up even though I know better
Picking ‘em (A)up even though I know better
Pick up the (G)tap when they ain’t got a dime
Picking up (D)problems that ain’t even mine
Picking ‘em (A)up even though I know better
I’m just (D)picking up trash and calling it treasure
I’m (D)picking up trash and calling it treasure
(Solo)

(Tag)
I can’t (D)change ‘em, I can’t fix ‘em
But (NC)damn I sure can pick ‘em - - - - -
