Ernest Tubb – Baby Its So Hard To Be Good (Guitar)

C                  F         C
I make a promise a day to my baby

            F                 C
I break the promise a day somehow

                   F         C
She says I'm gonna drive her crazy

    D7                       G
But I'm too old for changin' now

     C             F           C
I've always had an eye for the ladies

F                      C
Don't behave the way I should

      F                      C                F
But before we met I had some times I can’t forget

                 G          C
And baby it's so hard to be good

                  F      C
Now a cute little gal in Waco

    F                   C
Was once mighty kind to me

                   F   C
A little blonde in San Diego

      D7              G7
Burns holes in my memory

   C               F      C
My book of love is almost written

  F                 C
I loved every gal I could

             F
But when you get my age

         C        F
You want one last page

                 G          C
And baby it's so hard to be good

C
Ain’t that right Jack

                       F      C
Now my heart's full of good intentions

  F                    C
I try hard to walk the line

                 F        C
But memory's too sweet to mention

      D7                    G    G7
Keeps sneakin' back into my mind

C         F      C
Woman you know I love you

  F                    C
I prove it every way I could

             F
But when you get my age

         C        F
You want one last page

                 G          C
And baby it's so hard to be good

             F
But when you get my age

         C        F
you want one last page

                 G          C     C
And baby it's so hard to be good
