No Capo, chords with a * (as in *) are played with only one down-strum
This is what the Lord wants me to do
In my heart, I just believe that there's no proof
I think about the chorus, the melody's important
But nothing sounds sweeter than the truth
I used to sip the whiskey and hit the bong
I gave that up, now all my friends are gone
And my folks don't understand I ain't no macho man
But I know how to write one hell of a song
Yeah, I'm a - shy young man with a - real big heart
I still haven't found where I belong
But you know - my sweet Lord gave me - just one thing
Darling, I know how to write one hell of a song
Yeah, I know how to write one hell of a song
Wrote one for Snoop, did not take long
Wrote one for Bieber and one for Sean
And Jay Z offered me a deal
I said "Dawg, throw in another mil"
Cause you know I can write one hell of a song
Yeah, I'm a - shy young man with a - real big heart
I still haven't found where I belong
But you know - my sweet Lord gave me - just one thing
Darling, I know how to write one hell of a song
Yeah, I know how to write one hell of a song

Sometimes I stay up well past dawn
* * *
If God puts one in my head, that's what he wants
* * * *
I'm a simple type of artist, I don't like to walk red carpets
* * *
I would rather write one hell of a song
* * *
Yeah, I wrote this and it's one hell of a song
