You Just Can't See Him From the Road
Chris Ledoux
[Intro]
D G D
D A D
[Verse 1]
DWell you don't see him much, on the bGig screen anyDmore
The kids dont ride aAlong with Roy or GDene
And that ain't really him, with all those fGeathers in his Dhat
And some frenchman's name eAmbroidered on his jDeans
[Chorus]
BmBut he's still Gout there ridin fDences
BmStill makes his Glivin with his rAope
DAs long as theres a sunset, he'll keep Gridin for the Dbrand
You just can't Asee him from the rDoad
[Verse 2]
DWell he never learned to two step, hell he barGely learned tDo walk
But he's worn a lot of leAather off the treeD  
DHe's had one or two good horses, that he countGs among his fDriends
He never drew a brAeath that wasn't fDree
[Chorus]
BmBut he's still Gout there ridin fDences
BmStill makes his Glivin with his rAope
DAs long as theres a sunset, he'll keep Gridin for the Dbrand
You just can't Asee him from the rDoad
[Verse 3]
DWell he's tall in the saGddle, short on the cDash
The last to quit, the Afirst to buy the bDeer
DWell he's a night in leather armoGur, still livin by tDhe code
Thats made him what he's Abeen a hundred yeaDrs
[Chorus]
BmBut he's still Gout there ridin fDences
BmStill makes his Glivin with his rAope
DAs long as theres a sunset, he'll keep Gridin for the Dbrand
You just can't Asee him from the rDoad
[Outro]
DAs long as theres a sunset, he'll keep rGidin for the Dbrand
You just can't sAee him from the Droad
