E---3bh4------------3bh4------|
Le[A]t me tell you baby - If you want to pin me down
Better get your hammer, girl - and nail me to the ground
'C[D]ause you won't find no grass stains
On the bottom of my feet
The on[A]ly home I've ever known - is out there on the street.
You call [D]me insane - Honey, That's my middle na[A]me
And I[D] don't care which way the wind will bl[A]ow
'Cause I don't k[E]now - So down the road I g[A]o.
Musical turn around
Yo[A]u see I tried to settle down - Not too long ago
You can lock my body up - But you can't calm my soul
I don't w[D]ant to hurt you - Or put you on the shelf
But my da[A]ddy told me all my life
You've got to be yourself.
Repeat the chorus
Long instrumental
I'm[D] sure there's lots of guys out there
Who've learned to tow the line
Compared to them my life may look a wr[A]eck
But gi[D]rl, you've been to college
So you ahould know by now
An[E]d if you can't understand me
What the hell do you expect
I'[A]m giving you fair warning - I'm gonna say goodbye
And when I'm walking out the door
Don't want to hear you cry
The[D]re's so much highway out there
That I ain't never seen
And a[A]ll I need is cigarettes, guitars, and gasoline.
Repeat the chorus
Tag: Dow[A]n the road I go
I'll[A] see you around
'Ca[A]use I'm leaving town
Yea[A]h, yeah, yeahhh (fades out).
