[Verse]
EHe wasn't really known for breaking the rules
When he arrived in the seE7cond year of Amy high 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 fE7ind himself soAmething 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 lE7ate talking Ato the 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 bE7ible and lAiving proof
EThere's no point now to judge him in vain
If you hBaven't been there, you don't know the pain
[Bhorus 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 a sAugartoEoth
EHis life became more than he could take
He found a bad E7habit he cAouldn't break
ENothing could tame him and nothing could hold him
BHe only took the pills when the doctor told him
ELooking to help for the something sweet
To make his E7life feel as Aincomplete
EWhat in the hell are you gonna do
BWhen the world has made its mind up about you?
[Bhorus 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 a sAugartoEoth
C#mHe wanted to be a better man
Then life kBicked him down like an oEld tin can
AHe would give you the shirt on his back
If Bnot for a sAugarEtooth
[Verse 3]
EThey found him lying on his bed
With a gun in his hE7and and a qAuiet head
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 bE7attle and dAie alone
EAfter so many years of feeling lost
He fBinally made his Away bEack home
[Verse 4]
And I Eheard they put what was left in a box
And took it to a pE7lace called JAesus Rock
EAnd scattered him all over jagged mound
As a sBymbol to all that the piece had been found
EBut not for a sign is left behind
With a hand stuck rE7eaching bAack in time
ETo a place in which you can never unwind
I hope he fBound something so sweet
[Bhorus 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 a sAugartoEoth
C#mHe wanted to be a better man
B E
But life kicked him down like an old tin can
AHe would give you the shirt on his back
If Bnot for a sAugarEtooth
