D
I knew the first time should've been the last time
  G                    Bm
I ever let the whiskey touch my lips
           D
'Cause the devil wears black and he goes by Jack
         G                      Bm
And he's really good at helpin' me forget


[Instrumental]
D, G, Bm


[Verse II:]

  D
I thought it was cool when I was a kid
G                        Bm
Walkin' around with that cigarette lit
        D
On that ol' dirt road, I lit my first smoke
      G                            Bm
And I knew right then it wouldn't let me go


[Chorus]


D
And it's all or nothin'
So keep it comin'
G                    Bm
Let that feelin' run through my veins
D
Ain't no stoppin', keep on rockin', yeah
G
It seems I'm always
Bm
Yeah, I'm always
D                 G         Bm
Pickin' up what I can't put down

Yeah, I'm always
D                 G          Bm                   D
Pickin' up what I can't put, can't put, can't put down


[Instrumental]
D, G, Bm


[Verse III:]

D
She looked my way then looked back again
      G                           Bm
Gotta different kinda high when I touched her skin
         D
When she laid it on me, she rocked my world
  G                  Bm
I knew I'd never get away from that girl


[Chorus]

D
And it's all or nothin'
So keep it comin'
G                    Bm
Let that feelin' run through my veins
D
Ain't no stoppin', keep on rockin', yeah
G
It seems I'm always
Bm
Yeah, I'm always
D                 G         Bm
Pickin' up what I can't put down

Yeah, I'm always
D                 G          Bm                   D
Pickin' up what I can't put, can't put, can't put down


[Instrumental]
D, G, Bm x4


[Verse IV:]

       D
When I walked into my first smoky bar
G                      Bm
Cranked up the amp and played this guitar
        D
Had 'em singin' along by the end of the night
      G                            Bm
And I knew I finally got one thing right


[Chorus]

D
And it's all or nothin'
So keep it comin'
G                    Bm
Let that feelin' run through my veins
D
Ain't no stoppin', keep on rockin', yeah
G
It seems I'm always
Bm
Yeah, I'm always
D                 G         Bm
Pickin' up what I can't put down

Yeah, I'm always
D                 G          Bm                   
Pickin' up what I can't put down


[Outro]


Yeah, I'm always

D                 G          Bm
Pickin' up what I can't put, can't put, can't put down
D           G       Bm
Yeah, yeah, I wanna put it down
