[Intro 1]
[F][C][Dm][C][Am][C][Dm][C][Am][C][Dm]
[C][Am][C][Dm][C]
Jack of all trade [Am]Master

[Verse 1]
[C]
[Dm]of everything[C][Dm]
[C]Lived a life with a spice
For the party he [Dm]bring[C]s
[Dm]He could out- pray the Pope

[Verse 2]
More junk, more [C]dope
[Dm]He was my missin' link
Pour him an[C]other [Dm]drink

[Verse 3]
[C]He was always there
[F]To hea[C]r the church- bel[Dm]ls rin[C]ging
Front row, right [F]pew
[C]So that he could be [Dm]seen[C]
[Dm]I was with him

[Verse 4]
through all of this
But a few things that he [C]missed
[Dm]He didn't teach me a dad
gone [F]thing[Dm][C]
But how [Dm]to sing
[C]Oh

[Verse 5]
[C][F]
[C]He charmed all [F]the ladies
[C]They would watch his sho[F]w
[C]He made art from his heart
[Dm]He could [C]make a tear flow
[Dm]He could out- play the devil

[Verse 6]
Out- smart him too
If you would hear him croon his tune
He would blow your [C]mind [Dm]too[F]
[C]

[Verse 7]
He was always there
To hear the church- bells ringing
Front row, right [F]pew
[C]They mig[Dm]ht cal[C]l him to do his thing
[Dm]He spun around in the

[Verse 8]
pulpit
Flashin' a diamond ring
He didn't teach me a dad
gone [C]thing
But how [Dm]to sing[C]
[F]Whoa, [C]who[Am]a, wh[C]oa, whoa[Dm][C]

[Interlude 1]

[Dm][F]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Am][Dm][C][Dm][C]
[F][C][Dm][C]

[Verse 9]
He charmed all [C]the ladies[F]
[C]They would watch his show
He was smart, he was sharp
But didn't wanna [Dm]let g[C]o
[Dm]He could

[Verse 10]
out- play the devil
But why did he play me?
I stood right in front of his stage
But still I was hard [C]to see

[Verse 11]
He was [C]always [Dm]there
[F]To [C]hear the church- bells ringing
Front row, right pew
[Dm]So that [C]he could be [Dm]seen[C][Dm]

[Verse 12]
He would trade his only son
For the life that he could get
[Am]So the son w[Dm]ent to the
father's church
Stepped into the pulpit

[Verse 13]
Laying his head [Dm]back,
and opened his mouth
The church jumped up like spring
You didn't teach me a dad gone thing, [C]oh
But [C]how to [E]sing[Dm][C]
[Dm]Oh[C]

[Verse 14]
And I won't sing [C]my song
