Some of the little towns down here that we drive through, a few of them that we play, but some of the small towns that we just pass through are really beautiful.

A lot of those towns are kind of between Athens and Atlanta.
There's a lot of great music there, a lot of good old folks that still kind of do the same things that they used to.
When I'm home, I try to write songs. _
I sleep a lot and I shoot pool a lot.

_ [F#m] John [E] was a Baptist.
[F#m] He feared the world could end at [E] any time.

[F#m] Inside this house he never called [E] your name.
So [F#m] stay where I can see you, girl, [E] cause we both know the outside world [C#m] has changed and it'll never be the [B] same.
_ [F#m] My hands, they [E] are wicked.
_ My [F#m] head and my heart are [E] wicked too. _
[F#m] For all the things that I do [E] wrong, if you weren't given fear so [C#m] strong, I would not be good enough [B] for you.
_ Daisy [E] Mae, _ _ Daisy Mae, this [B] hasn't been your day. _
[F#] _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ [A] And I won't lay this pistol down _ [E] _ until the sky falls to the ground.
_ [B] Leave him there to call your name _ [A] until man and land are both the same.
