Verse:
Am F C G
You should have made me a drunkard Should have made me a liar
Made me a preacher With a head full of fire
You could have made me a gambler Could have made me a thief
Made me salesman Pockets full of receipts
Chorus:
F C
But I chose water over wine Jars of formaldehyde
F C
I think of all the things I missed
Am G
Why'd you make me a scientist?
Am F C G

Am F C G
Is this the best you've got? I'm not impressed
Anything you can do I'll equate and project
Then play the chorus one more time and finish out with the intro line played twice.
