[Intro]
A
[Verse]
A
Well, this is a song about a travellin' man who knows just what he wants
A
He thinks he's got it all figured out and tries not to take too much
A
He's spent a lot of time tryin' this and that and he knows just what he likes and he ain't goin' back
A D AEA
x2
A
Well, I got spiders in my bed and I got slugs up on the wall
D A E
There's a black bee a-flyin' round outside of my back door
A D
I'm weather worn, my shirt is torn, I got dirt comin' out my ears
A E A
From being gone all these years
A D AEA
x2
A
Well, one half of my head keeps singing songs of years of old
D A E
While the other sheds its skin on aggregates of minerals
A D
I'm a cask of oak, I'm whiskey soaked, been runnin' down the line
A E A
Aw, pour me another one honey, I'm doin' fine
[Chorus]
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D A E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey, no ice
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D E A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
A D AEA
x2
[Verse]
A
Well, I got sand in my shoes and I got dirt between my toes
D A E
There's calm before the storm I hear or so the story goes
A
I'm dancing in it now, got a sweaty brow, I can feel it coursing through my
D
veins
A E A
Aw, look out baby I'm comin' through when it rains
[Chorus]
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D A E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey, no ice
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D E A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
A D AEA
x2
[Bridge]
Bm E A E D
And I've been gone for so very long
Bm E A E D
Baby, don't think twice, you know I'll be alright
A E D
I got an absence without leave
A E D
Got an ace tucked up my sleeve
A E D A
With sticks and stones we'll take the throne
A E A
And make some history
[Chorus]
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D A E
Kicking up dirt while I'm on the run, double whiskey, no ice
D A E A D A E
I don't know where I belong but I know just what I like
D A E A D E A
A pretty lady and sing along songs, it'll take me through the night
