C C Am G C
[Verse 1]
CEveryone seems a damn genius lately
CTikTok talking, late-night TV
Am G CThere's still so much that I have yet to know
CWe get dressed up just to Go downtown
CIn some ego-filled, late night crowd
Am G CIt seems that's where I feel the most alone
CI'd like to get lost on some old backroad
CFind a shade tree and a honey hole
Am G CAnd talk to my grandpa again
[Verse 2]
CI see God in everything
CTrees and pain and nights in spring
Am G CSo why Do I still long for a home?
CI'd like to lay in a field on a cozy blanket
CAnd feel the fear of never waking
Am G CTo know the true warmth of the sun
CI'd like to love my lady long and hard
CAnd lay down lines of laymen guitar
Am G CAnd never leave loving arms again
[Verse 3]
CMy exes hate me and my friends all miss me
CI want to drown in rot gut whiskey
Am G CAnd leave this small town for awhile
CHead to Paris on a late-night flight
CFind a bar and get in a fight
Am G CWrite a few poems on a sunny balcony
CI want to be a child climbing trees somewhere
CBreathing in the fresh, outside air
Am G CBefore I knew this life was unkind
CI want a well-trained dog and on a couple of acres
CA kind, kind lady and a place to take her
Am G CAnd a few good friends I can count on one of my hands
[Verse 4]
CI know I'm bound to die one day
CSo when I reach those golden gates
Am G CI pray to say I did the best I can
CSit with my mother and the dearly departed
CSend a prayer down to the broken hearted
Am G CLet em' know it all turns out just fine
CTo know me is to love me and to hate me is to wrong me
CI prefer my nights lonely
Am G CI love blues guitar and muscle cars and gin
[Pre Chorus]
CI'm a simple man. I don't need much
CJust my simple songs and some human touch
Am G Cand I'm tired now so I'm bringing my ass home
[Chorus]
FSo let me go
AmDown the line
GLet me feel it all
FJoy pain and sky
FLet me go
AmDown the line
G FWe all burn, burn, burn then die
[Chorus]
FSo let me go
AmDown the line
GLet me feel it all
FJoy pain and sky
FLet me go
AmDown the line
G FWe all burn, burn, burn then die
[Chorus]
FSo let me go
AmDown the line
GLet me feel it all
FJoy pain and sky
FLet me go
AmDown the line
G FWe all burn, burn, burn then die
