Capo 3
Intro
G – – – : – – – – Verse 1
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – I could walk, I could walk for days
Across bridges and old highways
Bare feet, achey bones, skin burnt by the sun
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
No one around me but a few close friends
No one to tell me how the world is gonna end
Unconcerned with the wars and the bombs, we would run
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – –
We’d find a place in history
Carving our names in that old oak tree
Whiskey ‘round the fire, now I lay me down to sleep, and
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
In the morning, I would feel so good
Waking up in the middle of the woods
Legs stretched, palms up, and greeting the dawn
With this song, it goes
Chorus 1
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – Oh, I’ll always be angry, I’ll never be sober
I’ll never grow old
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
And I, I miss my home, sometimes
But mostly, I don’t, mostly, I don’t
Break 1
G – Verse 2
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – I could ride, I could ride this train
Across mountains, and sprawling plains
Blowing smoke and spitting in the wind
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – –
And I’d never care what lies ahead
These things are easier done than said
All it takes is a step
Chorus 2
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – Oh, I’ll always be angry, I’ll never be sober
I’ll never grow old
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
And I, I miss my home, sometimes
But mostly, I don’t, mostly, I don’t
Break 2
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 – Verse 3
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – So this is it, at long, long last
Beholden to nothing, but the shadow of the past
Well, I’d just let the time pass
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
Because - living good, living right
Is so much more complex than the black and the white,
And I’m not gonna waste my time
I’m not gonna waste my life
Chorus 3
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – I’m gonna keep going, my liver’s just fine, thanks
This will never get old
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
And I, I miss my home, sometimes
But mostly, I don’t, mostly, I don’t, don't, don't, no
Chorus 4
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – – – I’ll always be angry, I’ll never be sober
I’ll never grow old
G – – – C – – – G – – – D – D7 –
And I, I miss my home, except when I don’t
And mostly, I don’t
