[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
DWell tonight I'm up in Chillicothe
ADown-wind from the paper mill
A7I'm out here spittin' on the sidewalk
DTaking in the factory smells
N.C.
And I know she tends to smoke Em out the window
AIn the air of that gas pipe leak
A7I wonder if she's cringing at the same time
DThinking pretty thoughts of me
[Verse 2]
DI was up for hours this morning
APulling traps before I said goodbye
A7I plan to tan myself a fox hide
DAnd hang it on my darling bride
N.C.
Cause they tell me that it's gonna be a big one
AAnd the snow is settin' in
A7And I don't want her cold while I ain't at home
DThe way that I have been
[Chorus]
G ASpending my nights in a bar room, Lord
D GTurnin' them songs into two-by-fours
A ADreaming 'bout the day that I'm sitting by the fire
A DHuddlin' with my honey in the Country Squire
[Verse 3]
DWell tomorrow we hit the country music highway
AOn our way to Circleville
A7We're off to Do some weekend warring
DWhile we sing and drink our fill
N.C.
And when I ain't out playing on my six-string
AWith the nickels I acquire
A7I'm trying to fix her up a castle
DIt's called the Country Squire
[Verse 4]
DIt's a twenty-four-foot-long vessel
AMeasures eight feet wide
A7It's a fifty-three-year-old camper
DIt's made to pull behind
N.C
And I've gutted to the studs and the rafters
AAnd I'm building back piece by piece
A7I'm trying to fix her up a temple
DMy lady of the Estill Springs
[Chorus]
G ASpending my nights in a bar room, Lord
D GTurnin' them songs into two-by-fours
A ADreaming 'bout the day that I'll sit by the fire
A DHuddled with my honey in our Country Squire
[Solo/Intrumental Key Change]
E B B7 x 2
[Verse 5]
EOne day I aim to have myself a family
BAnd a cabin on the hill
B7And I might have to come off of the highway
ETo help with the family bills
N.C
But when the kids've got a little older
BOn the day that I retire
B7I'll take her somewhere warm for the winter
EPulling our Country Squire
[Chorus]
A BSpending my nights in a bar room, Lord
E ATurnin' them songs into two-by-fours
B BDreaming 'bout the day that I'll sit by the fire
B EHuddled with my honey in our Country Squire
B BDreaming 'bout the day that I'll sit by the fire
B EHuddled with my honey in our Country Squire
