The Most Sensible Thing

Waylon Jennings


Tom: E

 E                                     A
I've taken chances on everything in my life
B                                         E
Even against all the odds I've rolled the dice
 B     A  E                          A      F#m
Count me in on any deal that comes around
E              B               E
Right or wrong never slowed me down


[Chorus:]
            B                    E
I've always loved you silent but strong
B                                     E
Deep down in your heart you've always known
    A                   B                   E                 A
It's just that I've made more mistakes than any man under the sun
           B                                  E
You're the most sensible thing I've ever done


[Verse 2:]]
 E                                         A
Never complaining back when the times were bad
 B                                    E
Even when your faith in me was all we had
B      A   E                         A      F#m
Loving me wasn't worth the price you paid
 B                                          E
Darling, I've been wrong this is all I can say


[Chorus:]
             B                   E
I've always loved you silent but strong
B                                     E
Deep down in your heart you've always known
    A                   B                  E                  A
It's just that I've made more mistakes than any man under the sun
            B                                E
You're the only sensible thing I've ever done[x2]
