CAPO 1st Fret

G Dm C G

Intro: ( ) 2X

Verse 1

Sometimes I'm mad at the world, Mad at this town

Mad 'cause I can't lose the same five pounds

That I've been trying' to lose

for three or four years now.

Sometimes I feel like a truck that just won't run

On the side of the road in the July sun

There ain't another car for miles

That I can thumb down.

G F

I guess every now and then

C G

You're going to land on a bad day

Though I still do

C D

I know I can't complain.

Chorus:

Cause I love what I do

Love where I'm at

The stage, my band, and my old black hat

My big wool blanket

Sleepin' in my cowboy boots

I love my old bird dog

I like to watch him run

F C

My red guitar I bang around on some

Dm C F C G

And I love lovin' you

Dm C F C G

Baby, I love lovin' you.

Verse

Now heaven to me it's a simple thing

It's just you and me

And a phone that don't ring

C G

Popcorn poppin' on a lay around Friday night.

Seein' you smile when I wake up

The way you slide to the middle of my pick up truck

C G

The way you say baby, it's all gonna be all right

F G

When I walk in at the end of a worn out day

F C D

And I see you baby, how can I complain.

To Chorus:

Yes, I do.

Lead:

Well, I love where I've been, I don't look back

I thank God for the life he lets me have

My big wool blanket

Sleepin' in my cowboy boots

I love my old bird dog

I like to watch him run

F C

My red guitar I bang around on some

Dm C F C G

And I love lovin' you

Dm C F C G

Baby, I love lovin' you.

Outro:

Dm C F C G

Baby, I love ...........

Oh yes I do. ............

Dm C F C G

Love lovin' you......

I love my old bird dog

I like to watch him run.

C G

Lovin' you........
