Intro

D D D D

I swear I gave up drinkin

Sometimes I have no choice

After singin hard six nights straight

A little sip sure helps my voice

Don't get me wrong, I love these songs

And I know I got it made

Sometimes my mind starts driftin'

A D

When I'm up here on the stage

To that last half mile of dirt road

And that oak tree on the hill

To them dogs out barkin in the yard

And that tractor in the field

To them kids up on the front porch screamin'

Mama daddy's home

D A

When I'm out here I'm just thinking 'bout the things I miss

the most

Yeah the hardest thing I have to do

Is hang up this telephone

There's so much lrft to talk about

And I've been gone so long

So put them kids on one more time

Before they go to sleep

And baby, know no matter where I go

A D

All that I can see'

Is that last half mile of dirt road

And that oak tree on the hill

To them dogs out barkin in the yard
