[INTRO]
E  E7  E
[Verse]
EHe wasn't really known for breaking the rules
When he arrived in the seBm7add4cond year of my hiAgh school
EHe wasn't so much of a twist of fate
As a shBort turn up from a Southern state
He was bEorn with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat
Always trying to Bm7add4find himself somethiAng sweet
EAll that he found was a trouble and me
Or maybe tBrouble just found him
[Verse 2]
EIt was hard to hide that his heart had scars
He would stay up lBm7add4ate talking to thAe stars
EPeople tried to blame him for making bad choices
When Bhe was only listening to the voices
EAnd looking for some kind of deeper truth
Between the lines and the BBm7add4ible and living Aproof
EThere's no point now to judge him in vain
If you hBaven't been there, you don't know the pain
[Chorus 1]
EHe was a liar, but not a fraud
BLiving proof that there Ewas no God
AJust the Devil, stiff as a rod
A Bslave to the AsugartEooth
His Elife became more than he could take
He found a bad Bm7add4habit he couldnA't break
ENothing could tame him and nothing could hold him
BHe only took the pills when the doctor told him
ELooking too hard for that something sweet
To make his Bm7add4life feel less incAomplete
EWhat in the hell are you gonna do
BWhen the world has made its mind up about you?
[Chorus 2]
EHe was a liar, but not a fraud
BLiving proof that there Ewas no God
AJust the Devil, stiff as a rod
A Bslave to the AsugartEooth
C#mHe wanted to be a better man
Then life kBicked him down like an oEld tin canA  
He would give you the shirt on his back
If Bnot for a sAugartEooth
[Verse 3]
EThey found him lying on his bed
With a gun in his hBm7add4and and a quiet Ahead
EHis broken heart, now, is finally gone
BBut I know that he had to hurt for too long
ETo think he had fought it all on his own
Just to lose the bBm7add4attle and die alAone
EAfter so many years of feeling lost
He fBinally made his Away baBck homEe
[Verse 4]
And I Eheard they put what was left in a box
And took it to a pBm7add4lace called JAesus Rock
And Escattered him all over jagged mound
As a sBymbol to all that the piece had been found
But Enot for a son who's left behind
With a hand stuBm7add4ck reaching back Ain time
ETo a place in which you can never unwind
I hope he fBound something so sweet
[Chorus 2]
EHe was a liar, but not a fraud
BLiving proof that there Ewas no God
AJust the Devil, stiff as a rod
A Bslave to the AsugartEooth
C#mHe wanted to be a better man
Then life kBicked him down like an oEld tin canA  
He would give you the shirt on his back
If Bnot for a sAugartEooth

Bm7add4

C#m

[INTRO]

E E7 E

[Verse]

He wasn't really known for breaking the rules

Bm7add4 A

When he arrived in the second year of my high school

He wasn't so much of a twist of fate

As a short turn up from a Southern state

He was born with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat

Bm7add4 A

Always trying to find himself something sweet

All that he found was a trouble and me

Or maybe trouble just found him

[Verse 2]

It was hard to hide that his heart had scars

Bm7add4 A

He would stay up late talking to the stars

People tried to blame him for making bad choices

When he was only listening to the voices

And looking for some kind of deeper truth

Bm7add4 A

Between the lines and the Bible and living proof

There's no point now to judge him in vain

If you haven't been there, you don't know the pain

[Chorus 1]

He was a liar, but not a fraud

B E

Living proof that there was no God

Just the Devil, stiff as a rod

B A E

A slave to the sugartooth

His life became more than he could take

Bm7add4 A

He found a bad habit he couldn't break

Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him

He only took the pills when the doctor told him

Looking too hard for that something sweet

Bm7add4 A

To make his life feel less incomplete

What in the hell are you gonna do

When the world has made its mind up about you?

[Chorus 2]

He was a liar, but not a fraud

B E

Living proof that there was no God

Just the Devil, stiff as a rod

B A E

A slave to the sugartooth

C#m

He wanted to be a better man

B E A

Then life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back

B A E

If not for a sugartooth

[Verse 3]

They found him lying on his bed

Bm7add4 A

With a gun in his hand and a quiet head

His broken heart, now, is finally gone

But I know that he had to hurt for too long

To think he had fought it all on his own

Bm7add4 A

Just to lose the battle and die alone

After so many years of feeling lost

B A B E

He finally made his way back home

[Verse 4]

And I heard they put what was left in a box

Bm7add4 A

And took it to a place called Jesus Rock

And scattered him all over jagged mound

As a symbol to all that the piece had been found

But not for a son who's left behind

Bm7add4 A

With a hand stuck reaching back in time

To a place in which you can never unwind

I hope he found something so sweet

[Chorus 2]

He was a liar, but not a fraud

B E

Living proof that there was no God

Just the Devil, stiff as a rod

B A E

A slave to the sugartooth

C#m

He wanted to be a better man

B E A

Then life kicked him down like an old tin can

He would give you the shirt on his back

B A E

If not for a sugartooth

[Outro]

E Bm7add4 A E B A E

Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth

E Bm7add4 A E B A E

Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth

E Bm7add4 A E B A E

Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth

E Bm7add4 A E B A E

Ooh, oo-oh, ooh, ooh a slave to the sugartooth
