Well, I know you hate my drinking and the way I talk sometimes
B E
But you hate it most when I don't call at nights
A
And it's just because you love me and you worry about your man
E A E B E
You do the best you can with who I am
[Chorus]
A E A E
Burning both ends of a candle can leave one in the dark
A E B
But I know what I put you through is hard upon your heart
A E A
And it's just that you're concerned for me, sweetheart I understand
E A E B E A E B E
You do the best you can with who I am
[Verse 2]
E A E
You go to church on Sunday while I'm still home in bed
B E
Sleeping off the night I had before
A
And sometimes you say I'm perfect, and sometimes not worth a damn
E A E B E
You do the best you can with who I am
[Chorus]
A E A E
Burning both ends of a candle can leave one in the dark
A E B
But I know what I put you through is hard upon your heart
A E A
And it's just that you're concerned for me, sweetheart I understand
E A E B E A E B E
You do the best you can with who I am
