VerseE
Police are piddlin'
A
Pullin' people over for nothin' but a borin' night
E
With nothin' to do
And my eyes are wide
A
And my hands are kinda shakin' for some trouble that I got in to
E
And my tags are overdue
ChorusB7AE
But buddy I'm goin' home right now
VerseE
There's tolls both ways
A
And I'm the only person who came to watch me play last night
E
I got a cut of the door
It's about this time
A
I start recallin' how my mother said I didn't wanna be an artist
E
'Cause artist's are poor
ChorusB7AE
But buddy I'm goin' home right now
BridgeB7
I got enough gas
A
Just to get me back
EA
And I know that she's patiently waitin' on her wanderin' boy
B7A
Every time she crosses my mind
EA
My heart goes dancin' like the world is playin' Soldier's Joy
ChorusB7AE
So buddy I'm goin' home right now
VerseE
This here's a picture
A
From Chatham county reunion, she's wearin' my favorite dress
E
It makes me a mess
And it's hard on the road
A
When every mile I'm drivin' she's starin' at me from the dash
E
In my favorite dress
ChorusB7AE
So buddy I'm goin' home right now
BridgeB7
I got enough gas
A
Just to get me back
EA
And I know that she's patiently waitin' on her wanderin' boy
B7A
Every time she crosses my mind
EA
My heart goes dancin' like the world is playin' Soldier's Joy
ChorusB7AE
So buddy I'm goin' home right now
