[VERSE]
[E]He wasn't really known for breaking the rules
When he arrived in the se[E7]cond year of [A]my high school
[E]He wasn't so much of a twist of fate
As a sh[B]ort turn up from a Southern state
He was b[E]orn with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat
Always trying to f[E7]ind himself so[A]mething sweet
[E]All that he found was a trouble and me
Or maybe t[B]rouble just found him

[VERSE 2]
[E]It was hard to hide that his heart had scars
He would stay up l[E7]ate talking [A]to the stars
[E]People tried to blame him for making bad choices
When [B]he was only listening to the voices
[E]And looking for some kind of deeper truth
Between the lines and the b[E7]ible and l[A]iving proof
[E]There's no point now to judge him in vain
If you h[B]aven't been there, you don't know the pain

[Bhorus 1]
[E]He was a liar, but not a fraud
[B]Living proof that there [E]was no God
[A]Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
A [B]slave to a s[A]ugarto[E]oth

[E]His life became more than he could take
He found a bad [E7]habit he c[A]ouldn't break
[E]Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him
[B]He only took the pills when the doctor told him
[E]Looking to help for the something sweet
To make his [E7]life feel as [A]incomplete
[E]What in the hell are you gonna do
[B]When the world has made its mind up about you?

[Bhorus 2]
[E]He was a liar, but not a fraud
[B]Living proof that there [E]was no God
[A]Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
A [B]slave to a s[A]ugarto[E]oth

[C#m]He wanted to be a better man
Then life k[B]icked him down like an o[E]ld tin can
[A]He would give you the shirt on his back
If [B]not for a s[A]ugar[E]tooth

[VERSE 3]
[E]They found him lying on his bed
With a gun in his h[E7]and and a q[A]uiet head
[E]His broken heart, now, is finally gone
[B]But I know that he had to hurt for too long
[E]To think he had fought it all on his own
Just to lose the b[E7]attle and d[A]ie alone
[E]After so many years of feeling lost
He f[B]inally made his [A]way b[E]ack home

[VERSE 4]
And I [E]heard they put what was left in a box
And took it to a p[E7]lace called J[A]esus Rock
[E]And scattered him all over jagged mound
As a s[B]ymbol to all that the piece had been found
[E]But not for a sign is left behind
With a hand stuck r[E7]eaching b[A]ack in time
[E]To a place in which you can never unwind
I hope he f[B]ound something so sweet

[Bhorus 2]
[E]He was a liar, but not a fraud
[B]Living proof that there [E]was no God
[A]Just the Devil, stiff as a rod
A [B]slave to a s[A]ugarto[E]oth

[C#m]He wanted to be a better man
[B] [E]
[B]ut life kicked him down like an old tin can
[A]He would give you the shirt on his back
If [B]not for a s[A]ugar[E]tooth

[OUTRO]
[E]Ooh, oo-[E7]oh, o[A]oh, o[E]oh a sla[B]ve to a s[A]ugart[E]ooth
[E]Ooh, oo-[E7]oh, o[A]oh, o[E]oh a sla[B]ve to a s[A]ugart[E]ooth
[E]Ooh, oo-[E7]oh, o[A]oh, o[E]oh a sla[B]ve to a s[A]ugart[E]ooth
[E]Ooh, oo-[E7]oh, o[A]oh, o[E]oh a sla[B]ve to a s[A]ugart[E]ooth
