Verse 1
G G
Eighteen wheeler, backroad dealer
C G
Hundred different ways to ride
G G
If you'da seen what I seen, done what I done
A G
You'd be lookin' for a place to hide
G
Even if I had a shiny silver dollar
G C
Every time I missed the promised land
G
I'd still be two bucks shy at the back of the line
G D
'Cause they ain't never gonna let me in
Chorus
G
Oh lordy, when my pride got the best of me
C G
When my pride got the best of me
G
I was a stuck-up, no good son of a gun
A D
Until the good lord set me free
G
Found a way to put it all together
C A
Tried to make the whole world see,
C G
Foolish pride begone, glory Saint Mary
D G
Hallelujah, let me be
Verse 2
G G
Well, cold hard money, and cash and clothes
C G
Livin' it up every day
G
A weekend trip down to Vegas
A D
Right up until the repo came
G G
There I was on the ground with the shit comin' down
C
'Til I saw a shimmering light
G G
Lady luck in her two-piece bikini
D G
Come to fly me home through the night
Chorus
G
Lordy, when the dealer got a hold of me
C G
When the dealer got a hold of me
G
I was a rollin', reelin', two-time cheatin'

'Til the good lord set me free

Found a way to put it all together
C A
And tried to make the whole world see, yeah

Dirty dealin' begone, glory Saint Mary

Hallelujah, let me be, come on

Verse 3
G
Well, Honky Tonk Hell is a hell of a place
C G
They got a big old dance room hall
Seats reserved for all the folks down in Nashville
A D
For writin' phony-ass country songs,
G F
And if people ever get to askin'
C
Mr. Gabe Lee, how you end up here?
G
I look 'em dead in the eye and my only reply
D G
Is to hit 'em with a mile-long stare
Chorus
F
Lordy, when the devil got a hold of me
C G
When the devil got a hold of me
I felt a black hole way down deep in my heart
A D
Until the good lord set me free
G
Found a way to put it all together
C A
Tried to make the whole world see, yeah

Punk-ass devil begone, glory Saint Mary

Hallelujah, hallelujah, let me be
