[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
Well tonigDht I'm up in Chillicothe
Down-wind from the paper Amill
I'm A7out here spittin' on the sidewalk
Taking in the factory smDells
And I Dknow she tends to smoke 'em out the window
In the air of that gas pipe Aleak
I A7wonder if she's cringin' at the same time
Thinking pretty thoughts of Dme
[Verse 2]
I was Dup for hours this morning
Pulling traps before I said goAodbye
I pA7lan to tan myself a fox hide
And hang it on my darling bDride
'Cause they Dtell me that it's gonna be a big one
And the snow is settin' Ain
And I don't A7want her cold while I ain't at home
The way that I have bDeen
[Chorus]
GSpending my nights in a bAar room, Lord
DTurnin' them songs into tGwo-by-fours
ADreaming 'bout the day that I'm Asitting by the fire
AHuddlin' with my honey in the Country DSquire
[Verse 3]
Well tomorrDow we hit the country music highway
On our way to CircleAville
We're A7off to do some weekend warrin'
While we sing and drink our fDill
And when I ain't Dout playing on my six-string
With the nickels I acqAuire
I'm A7trying to fix her up a castle
It's called the Country SqDuire
[Verse 4]
It's a Dtwenty-four-foot-long vessel
Measures eight feet wAide
It's a A7fifty-three-year-old camper
It's made to pull beDhind
And I've gDutted to the studs and the rafters
And I'm buildin' back piece by piAece
I'm A7trying to fix her up a temple
My lady of the Estill SprDings
[Chorus]
GSpending my nights in a bAar room, Lord
DTurnin' them songs into Gtwo-by-fours
ADreaming 'bout the day that I'll Asit by the fire
AHuddled with my honey in our Country SqDuire
[Solo/Intrumental Key Change]
E   B   B7x 2
[Verse 5]
One Eday I aim to have myself a family
And a cabin on the hBill
And I B7might have to come off of the highway
To help with the family bEills
But when the Ekids've got a little older
On the day that I reBtire
I'll B7take her somewhere warm for the winter
Pullin' our Country SqEuire
[Chorus]
ASpending my nights in a Bbar room, Lord
ETurnin' them songs into Atwo-by-fours
BDreaming 'bout the day that I'll Bsit by the fire
BHuddled with my honey in our Country SqEuire
[Outro]
BDreaming 'bout the day that I'll sBit by the fire
BHuddled with my honey in our Country SqEuire
