He was a sweCet boy never mean to cause no trouble
Couldn't help Gbut be polite he probably learned it from his mother
He's the compFlicated type
A Amcomplicated type

Grew up Creal fast just like Carolina pine
Hid his drugs unGder his bible mixed his whisky with his wine
He had a sparFkle in his eye
Like Amjust before you cry
Like Fright before Gyou crCy

It was a Clong night he'd been sitting at the bar
When they turnGed off all the lights he started looking for his car
But when his eyes Fbegan to gleam
And the Amlights started to stream
He Fslipped into a GdreamC  
Now while Cmost folks dream of money love and hope
His were of Gviolent crashing waves and bodies swinging tied to ropes
While his whole Ffamily laughed aloud
HoveAmring above a crowd
Who for Fhelp were screaming outG  C

Well I'm E7nobody there's nothing I can Amdo
To bring anyoFne back to lifeC  G

When he Ccame to was if he'd been dead for years
And the Gwind was blowin' hard both his eyes were full of tears
But a Fchange had taken place 
You could Amsee it on his face
Man you could Fsee it on his GfaceC  
On the Cway home he found a bottle in the road
And thought of Gall the explanations that he thought that he was owed
And as he Fkicked it down the street 
He felt Amlighter on his feet
And he Fcouldn't help but GsingC

"A Complicated Type"

by Michael Trent

'The Winner'

Capo on 2nd Fret

He was a sweet boy never mean to cause no trouble

Couldn't help but be polite he probably learned it from his mother

He's the complicated type

A complicated type

F G C

Grew up real fast just like Carolina pine

Hid his drugs under his bible mixed his whisky with his wine

He had a sparkle in his eye

Like just before you cry

Like right before you cry

Am G C

F G Am C F C

It was a long night he'd been sitting at the bar

When they turned off all the lights he started looking for his car

But when his eyes began to gleam

And the lights started to stream

F G C

He slipped into a dream

Now while most folks dream of money love and hope

His were of violent crashing waves and bodies swinging tied to ropes

While his whole family laughed aloud

Hovering above a crowd

Who for help were screaming out

When he came to was if he'd been dead for years

And the wind was blowin' hard both his eyes were full of tears

But a change had taken place

You could see it on his face

Man you could see it on his face

On the way home he found a bottle in the road

And thought of all the explanations that he thought that he was owed

And as he kicked it down the street

He felt lighter on his feet

F G C

And he couldn't help but sing

Am G C
