[Intro]

[Verse]

   C             F                 
A man with forty acres plowed 
      C
And planted

     G                                    
Can't send no fourteen year 
                 C
Old boy to no school
                  F                     
The only thing I learned in the 
         C
Years I worked on my daddy's farm
     G                                            
Was son, you better get them 
                        C
Crops in when it turns cool
 
 
[Verse]

                      
In the magazines, 
   F              C
I saw the pretty women
   G                               
I heard about the drinkin' 
         C
And the bars
                      F                
If my daddy could've caught me, 
        C
He'd a-killed me
           G                                           
He said, "You might run, boy, 
                         C
But you ain't gonna get far"
 
 
[Verse]

             F                   
I hit town, you might 
             C
Say that it hit me
      G                                   
Next mornin' there were  
                     C
Things I knew more about
                           F              
The woman who had taken me in 
             C
She said, "Country boy, 

You're all right"
     G                                 
The same way I turned her on, 
              C
She turned me out
 
 
[Verse]

                      F                
The first law I broke, right 
           C
Away they got me

   G                                        
I helped them build the 
                     C
Country roads for awhile
                         F             
They fed me two times a day
            C
 And they knocked me down about four
      G                                 
For thirty days I didn't 
               C   A
Even crack a smile
 
 
[Verse]

   D                    G                
I met a nice girl and she 

                D
Said I was her baby
            A                          
She let me go and would 
                D
never tell me why
                          G              
I learned what it means 
  G                D
To be somebody's baby
      A                                   
They let you lie in your 
                      D
Bed by yourself and cry
 
 
[Verse]

     D                       G                    
The miles were good but the 
 G                      D
Mileage is turnin' my hair gray
      A                                        
I've met some people that knew 
                 D
Me and call me friend
                G                     
Ain't no sense wantin'
                 D
 My life to live over
     A                                     
I'd find different ways 
                         D
To make those mistakes again
 
 
[Outro]

                     G                     
So let me say this, I never 
                 D
Tried to hurt anybody
           A                                                  
Though I guess there's a few, 
                 
That I still couldn't 
            D
Look in the eye
                     G                    
If I've got one wish, I hope 
                D
It rains at my funeral
    A                                 
For once, I'd like to be 
               D
The only one dry
