Character Flaw Lyrics & Chords By Joe Ely

It's pride against money
Love against pride
Driving all the demons
That I've been keeping inside
I always go for the long shot
I never hesitate
When I wave to the four winds
The fickle finger of fate

If greatness courts failure
Then failure's my fame
Although they call me a legend
They can't remember my name
Some people chasing their savior
Some people chasing their call
As for my foolish behavior
It's just a character flaw

It's just a character flaw
No matter what you saw
It don't matter at all
It's just a character flaw


Some men living for pleasure
Some thriving on pain
Some live for love unmeasured
Some for the ball and chain
So if you call me a sinner
Or if you call me a saint
When I come up a winner
Don't want to hear your complaint

If greatness courts failure
Then failure's my fame
Although they call me a legend
They can't remember my name
Some people chasing their savior
Some people chasing their call
As for my foolish behavior
It's just a character flaw

No matter what you saw
It don't matter at all
It's just a character flaw

It's just a character flaw

It's just a character flaw

It's just a character flaw
It ain't against the law
And you can kiss my ass
It's just a character flaw
