[Intro]
C C [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
