Good Graces from 100 Proof by The Backwater Ramblers

Good Graces


Innocent and true
is how i think of you.
You’ve done things for me
that I could never do.

But that devil in a bottle
my dark light did follow.
I was swayed
and easily lead astray.

Oh let me get back,
Oh let me get back,
I want to get back,
in your good graces!
(instr. break)

The whiskey I was drinking
sure affected my thinking.
I’m so sorry
I acted that way.

I admit I done wrong
boozing all night long.
Please dear forgive me
when you hear me sing this song.

Chorus
(instr. break)

rubato
Now I don’t have a good excuse
and honey that’s the truth
I just should’ve turned
and walked away

Now I’m down on my knees
begging you please
won’t you hear me
when I say…

Chorus
(instr. break)

I gave into temptation
now I seeking salvation.
Losing you
is a price I cannot pay.

Please tell what to do
so I can make it up to you
I’ll do anything
your sweet lips say.

Oh Let me get back
Oh let me get back
I want to get back,
in your good graces
in your good graces
in your good graces!
