Am Dm6 E Cmaj7/5+
Am
The first time you take a drink
E Am
It makes you spit & sputter
E
Shiver and shudder
Am
Mumble and mutter
Am Am/G
But the next one tastes so sweet
Dm
It makes you want another
F E Am
And now you're drinkin' all the time
F Am
If you're lookin' for trouble
C E Am
Trouble will find you
E
Trouble will find you
Am
Trouble will find you
F Am
Don't go lookin' for trouble
C E Dm
Trouble will find you
F E Am
And you sure don't have to look too hard
The first time you shade the truth
You want to run and hide
Your tongue gets tied
Your throat gets dry
And you start thinkin' that maybe no one knows you lied
And now you're shady all the time
Don't go lookin' for trouble
Trouble will find you
Trouble will find you
Trouble will find you
Don't go lookin' for trouble
Trouble will find you
And you sure don't have to look too hard
Dm
Trouble will pin a tail on you
Am E Am
And follow you around
Dm
And catch you when your number's up
B E Cmaj7/5+
And when your guard is down
/5+
The first time you fall in love
And the skies are sunny
She calls you honey
Your jokes are funny
Then she reminds you she was only in it for the money
And now you're drinkin' all the time
Don't go lookin' for trouble
Trouble will find you
Trouble will find you
Deaf, dumb, & blind you
Don't go lookin' for trouble
Let me remind you
You sure don't have to look too hard
Trouble in your own backyard
