(Intro.)
|(C)(G)(D) | x 2

(Verse 1)
(D) Meatloaf and (G)mashed potatoes
(D) Jesus Christ ain't (G)gonna save us
(D) Be careful or this (G)old world will make us
(C)Crazy as a (G)three-legged (D)mule

(Verse 2)
(D) Bake the biscuits (G)brown and easy
(D) Fried chicken all (G)nice and greasy
Every (D)time she comes around (G)here and sees me
I'm (C)shaking like a (G)love drunk (D)fool

(Chorus)
Cause I'm (G)smiling like a sinner on a mon-(D)th without Sundays
(G) I guess I'm pretty alright (D)
(G)Put it in a postcard
Tell (D)the whole world that I’m (A) just fine
And I'm (G)skipping like a flat rock (D)sailing cross the water
(G)Shining like the Ryman's stained (D)glass
(G)Happy as the music coming out (D)of the speakers
In the (A)back of John Prine's Cadillac

(Solo)
|(C)(G)(D) | x 2

(Verse 3)
(D) Rolling slowly, (G)humming a song
I keep my (D)Christmas tree lit up (G)all year long
You got me (D) smiling bigger than (G)Cheech and Chong
My heart (C)banging like two (G)boots in a dryer (D)

(Verse 4)
(D) I roll the dice and (G)I can't lose
I got (D)rings on my fingers and (G)wings on my shoes
(D)If I try to sing them (G)lovesick blues
Every-(C)body’ll know that (G)I'm a liar (D)

(Chorus)
Cause I'm (G)smiling like a sinner on a mon-(D)th without Sundays
(G) I guess I'm pretty alright (D)
(G)Put it in a postcard
Tell the (D)whole world that I’m (A) just fine
And I'm (G)skipping like a flat rock (D)sailing cross the water
(G)Shining like the Ryman's stained (D)glass
(G)Happy as the music coming (D)out of the speakers
In the (A)back of John Prine's Cadillac

(Chorus)
Cause I'm (G)smiling like a sinner on a month (D)without Sundays
(G) I guess I'm pretty alright (D)
(G)Put it in a postcard
Tell the (D)whole world that I’m (A) just fine
And I'm (G)skipping like a flat rock (D)sailing cross the water
(G)Shining like the Ryman's stained glass (D)
(G)Happy as the music coming (D)out of the speakers
In the (A)back of John Prine's Cadillac
