Careful Man Jim Croce
Jim Croce
(Intro: Blues)
Eâ??C#7â??F#7â??B7â??E
[E]I donâ??t gamble, I donâ??t figh[E7]t,
[A]I donâ??t be hanginâ?? in the bars at ni[F#7]ght;
Yeah, I [E]used to be a fig[C#7]hter, but now I[F#7] am a wis[B7]er man[E]
[E]I donâ??t drink, much, I donâ??t[E7] smoke,
[A]I donâ??t hardly mess around with no dope;[F#7]
Yeah, I [E]used to be a pro[C#7]blem, but now I[F#7] am a car[B7]eful man[E] [E7]
(Chorus)
But if you used[A] to wanna see a commotion,
You shouldâ??ve [E]seen the man that I used to be;
I was troubl[A]e in perpetual motion,
[F#7]Trouble with a capital â??Tâ??[B7]
Stayinâ?[E]? out late, havinâ?? fu[E7]n,
And shot off eve[A]ry single shot in my gun;[F#7]
Yeah, I [E]used to be a lov[C#7]er but n[F#7]ow I am an older[B7] man[E]
(2nd end for chorus)
Yeah, I used to be a terror, but now I am a tired man
I didn't tab out the intro, but I'll work on it. This is a fun blues to play with that
Croce irony. --Best, Mo Love
