INTO
GDsus4/f# Em7Cadd9GDsus4/F#Cadd9GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Well we ride into town in a beat up van, got our name on the side like rock n roll band
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Stearin’ out a cracked windshield with one headlight
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Got our guitars and were rearin’ to go, down to Larson City for a 3 hour show
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
If we ain’t half bad I know there gonna treat us right
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Oh whatever made me wanna live like this, gotta get stoned just to get my fix
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Like it or not there ain’t no turnin’ round
GDsus4/F#Em7
LIke a fright train rollin’ out through the night got the pedal to the medal
Cadd9
honey hold on tight
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Gypsy life I know won’t let me down
(Chorus)
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
See I was born to be a guitar picker guess I had a soft spot for the women and liquor
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
It’s a wonder how I kept my sanity
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
I played in every bar from here to Memphis drinkin’ like Hank and singin’ like Elvis
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Folks out west didn’t think awhole lotta me
GDsus4/F#Cadd9G
Guess an Old Honky Tonkers bout all I’ll ever be
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Well I had a little woman back in San Anton times got rough and I moved on
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Left her cryin’ in a trailer by the county line
GDsus4/F#Em7
So I bought a guitar and I found me a band grew out my beard became a
Cadd9
travelin’ man
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Playin’ one night shows in any place we could find
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
County fairs and micro clubs sang about whiskey, fast women and love
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
And it’s all the same just as long as we can make a buck
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Well we play it fast and we play it so from Mustang Sally down to Curtis Loew
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
And when the bottles fly we just smile and turn it up
(Chorus)
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
See I was born to be a guitar picker guess I had a soft spot for the women and liquor
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
It’s a wonder how I kept my sanity
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
I played in every bar from here to Memphis drinkin’ like Hank and singin’ like Elvis
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Folks out west didn’t think awhole lotta me
GDsus4/F#Cadd9G
Guess an Old Honky Tonkers bout all I’ll ever be
SOLO
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Well the night is young and the beer is cold the women are sweet and my lines are old
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
But it all comes together when we get down and start to play
GDsus4/F#
Guess there’s somethin’ bout the sound of a Gibson flat top
Em7Cadd9
Crankin’ out loud just pickin’ it non stop
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Get on the floor and two step the night away
(Chorus)
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
See I was born to be a guitar picker guess I had a soft spot for the women and liquor
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
It’s a wonder how I kept my sanity
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
I played in every bar from here to Memphis drinkin’ like Hank and singin’ like Elvis
GDsus4/F#Em7Cadd9
Folks out west didn’t think awhole lotta me
GDsus4/F#Cadd9G
Guess an Old Honky Tonkers bout all I’ll ever be
