Careful Man Jim Croce (Intro: Blues) ———— I don’t gamble, I don’t fight, I don’t be hangin’ in the bars at night; Yeah, I used to be a fighter, but now I am a wiser man I don’t drink, much, I don’t smoke, I don’t hardly mess around with no dope; Yeah, I used to be a problem, but now I am a careful man (Chorus) But if you used to wanna see a commotion, You should’ve seen the man that I used to be; I was trouble in perpetual motion, Trouble with a capital “T” Stayin’ out late, havin’ fun, And shot off every single shot in my gun; Yeah, I used to be a lover but now I am an older man (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
