Brad Paisley - "Anything Like Me"

Intro: D G A D G A

D A
I remember sayin' I don't care either way
Bm A G
Just as long as he or she is healthy I'm ok
D A
Then the doctor pointed to the corner of the screen
Bm A G
And said "Ya see that thing right there well ya know what that means"
A G
And I started wondering who he was going to be
A G A
And I thought heaven help us if he's anything like me

G A
He'll probably climb a tree too tall and ride his bike too fast
D Bm A
End up every summer wearin something in a cast
G D/F# Em A
He's gonna throw a ball and break some glass in a window down the street
G A
He's gonna get in trouble oh he's gonna get in fights
Bm A Esus4 E
I'm gonna lose my temper and some sleep
G F#m Bm E A D
It safe to say that I'm gonna get my pay back if he's anything like me

D G A

D A
I can see him right now knees all skinned up
Bm A G
With a magnifying glass tryin to melt the Tonka truck
D A
Won't he be a sight with his football helmet on
Bm A G
That'll be his first love till his first love comes along
A G
He'll get his heart broke by the time he's in his teens
A G A
And heaven help him if he's anything like me

G A
He'll probably stay out too late and drive his car too fast
D Bm
Get a speeding ticket he'll pay for mowing grass
G D/F# Em A
He's gonna get caught skippin class and be grounded for a week
G A
He's gonna get in trouble we're gonna get in fights
Bm A Esus4 E
I'm gonna lose my temper and some sleep
G F#m Bm E A G
It's safe to say that I'm gonna get my pay back if he's anything like me

G F#m Em D A

A G D A
He's gonna love me and hate me along the way
A G Em A
The years are gonna fly by I already dread the day
G A
He's gonna hug he's momma he's gonna shake my hand
Bm A Esus4 E
He's gonna act like he can't wait to leave
G F#m Bm
But as he drives out he'll cry he's eyes out
E A D
If he's anything like me
G
There's worse folks to be like
F#m Bm E A D G A D
Aw he'll be alright if he's anything like me
