Old Man Markley - Running Weight
Intro - Dm (bass, harmonica, mandolin)
[Dm]Driving 15 hours, push my body to the brink
The only friend come with me is the [G]coffee that I drink
Hope I don't find trouble, hope it goes real easy
Cause I ain't the kind for fighting, blood and guts, they make me queasy
Dm Dm(stop)
I'm paranoid
CHORUS
I'm [Bb]paranoid
When you're running this much weight
you [Dm]can't avoid (getting paranoid)<- 2nd and 3rd time only
Getting [Bb]paranoid
[G]Worries crash into me like an [Dm]asteroid
Driving [Dm]deep into the woods, trees taller than the hills
Ain't no turning back now, on my [G]mind are all those bills
I'm just the same as anyone, underneath that mighty sun
I've never been one for working, rather make another run?
Dm Dm(stop)
I'm paranoid
Chorus then Solo (verse chords)
And now I'm [Dm]filled up to the brim with that finest Northern green
Dm(stop) G
And I'm starting down the road, heading back where I have been
One eye watching my top speed
The other looking round
Cause one flicker from the sirens
And I'm surely prison bound
Dm Dm(stop)
I'm paranoid
CHORUS
I'm getting [Bb]paranoid (I'm getting [G]paranoid)
A little bit [Dm]paranoid (I'm getting [Bb]paranoid)
[G]Paranoid (I'm getting [Dm]paranoid)
Getting [Bb]paranoid (no you just [G]can't avoid)
Getting [Dm]pa-[Dm]ra-[Dm]noid
