The easy-to-play title track from Joe's new album of the same name.
Sounds like it's a classical guitar in this. Maybe a uke at a push.
This might sound good with two guitars, one capo'd on the second fret,
and A -> G, D -> C, E -> D.
A Dsus2 A Dsus2 A
AI'm dustin' off Hank Eand I'm puttin' Ahim on
and I'm gonna drink one and Dsus2listen to a country Asong
The way it sounded in Dsus2nineteen-fifty-AtwoDsus2  
I'm takin' some Aold things, Eand makin' 'em AnewDsus2  
I'm pickin' up the Aphone Eand I'm startin' to Adial
A number of friends I haven't Dsus2talked to in a Awhile
and I'm gonna tell 'em that I Dsus2love 'em, yes I AdoDsus2  
I'm takin' some Aold things, Eand makin' 'em Anew
Lately my Eworld's been Dsus2movin' way too Afast
I need to Dslow down and catch Aup with some of the Epast
Maybe Ago back home and Dsus2stay for a week or AtwoDsus2
