Tom: A
Introdução:
A
Let me tell you baby - If you want to pin me down
Better get your hammer, girl - and nail me to the ground
D
'Cause you won't find no grass stains
On the bottom of my feet
A
The only home I've ever known - is out there on the street.
D A
You call me insane - Honey, That's my middle name
D A
And I don't care which way the wind will blow
E A
'Cause I don't know - So down the road I go.
Musical turn around
A
You see I tried to settle down - Not too long ago
You can lock my body up - But you can't calm my soul
D
I don't want to hurt you - Or put you on the shelf
A
But my daddy told me all my life
You've got to be yourself.
D
I'm sure there's lots of guys out there
Who've learned to tow the line
A
Compared to them my life may look a wreck
D
But girl, you've been to college
So you ahould know by now
E
And if you can't understand me
What the hell do you expect
A
I'm giving you fair warning - I'm gonna say goodbye
And when I'm walking out the door
D
There's so much highway out there
That I ain't never seen
A
And all I need is cigarettes, guitars, and gasoline.
Repeat the chorus
A
Tag: Down the road I go
A
I'll see you around
A
'Cause I'm leaving town
A
Yeah, yeah, yeahhh (fades out).
