Roger Alan Wade - If You're Gonna Be Dumb guitar chord

If You're Gonna be Dumb - Roger Allen Wade

Chorus

G

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

C G

When you get knocked down you gotta get back up

C

I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough ......to know

D G

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

G C

I lit my brain with rot gut whiskey

G

Till my pain was chicken fry

C

and I had dudes with badges frisk me

D G

teach me how to swallow pride

G

I took advice no fool would take

I got some habits I can't shake

I aint the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough........to know

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

When you get knocked down you gotta get back up

That's the way it is in life and love

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

I been up and down and down and out

I been left and right and wrong

well I walk the walk and I run my mouth

been on the short end for too long

but if they gave medals for honky tonk wars

hell I'd keep mine in my chester drawers

with my IRS bills and divorce papers and all that stuff

hell If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

When you get knocked down you gotta get back up

I aint the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough to know

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough

If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough
