Key: G
Introduction:
G C G
I catch my buzz in the black of night
D C G
Where nobody ever goes and the warm wind blows
G C G
If I lose my cool in the open and it shows
D C G
That I'm down and I ain't alright
G C G
I search my soul where there is no moon
D C G
The trees all cross and are covered in moss
G C G
If the crickets wanna know then I'll tell them what I lost
D C G
Oh, I got the tailgate blues
Am7Em

D C G
I ain't sure were it all began

And now I'm just sittin' here alone

I catch my buzz in the black of night

For playing more than a song
D C G
My heart won't beat if the strings are broke

The melody's hittin' me wrong

Right here where she belongs

The crickets heard my story and I listened to em sing

There ain't no telling what tomorrow might bring

Maybe me and a Dixie cup

But that won't be enough
