[Eb] [Bb] [Cm]
[Eb] [Bb] [Ab]
[Eb] We were out in the town in a beat up [Cm] van Got her name on the side like a rock and roll
[Eb] band Staring out a [Bb] crack windshield, [Ab] woman head
like [Eb] Got a guitar tuned and we're rearing to [Cm] go
Down to Lawson City for a three hour [Eb] show If we ain't half [Bb] bad I know they're gonna
[Ab] treat us right [Eb] Oh honey, [Bb] made me want to live like [Cm] hell
She got a guest on just to get my [Eb] fix Liking her [Bb] not and there ain't no [Ab] turning
around [Eb] Like a freight train [Bb] rolling out through
the [Cm] night Got the pedal to the metal, honey, hold on
[Eb] tight She chips the [Bb] life I know won't [Ab] let me down
Said I was [Bb] born to be a guitar [Cm] picker Guess I had a soft spot for the [Ab] women and
liquor At least I [Bb] wonder how I kept my [Eb] sanity
[Ab] I played in every [Bb] bar from here to [Cm] Memphis Drankin' like Hanky, singin' like [Eb] Elvis
Folks out [Bb] west didn't think a whole [Cm] lot of me
[Ab] [Eb] Guess I'm no hunk of [Db] talkers but all I'll [Eb] ever be
Well I had a little [Bb] woman back in San [Cm] Antone Times got [Ab] rough and I moved [Eb] on
Left her [Bb] crying in a trailer by the [Ab] county line
[Eb] So I bought a guitar [Bb] and I found me a [Cm] band I grew out my beard [Ab] and become a traveling
[Eb] man Doing one night [Bb] shows in any place [Ab] we could
find [Eb] County [Bb] fairs and micro [Cm] clubs
Sing about [Ab] whiskey, fast women and [Eb] love It's all the [Bb] same just as long as we can [Ab] make
a buck [Eb] Yeah we play it [Bb] fast and we play it slow
[Cm]
Mustang [Ab] Sally down to Curtis Road [Eb] When the bottles fly [Bb] we just smile and turn
[Ab] it up Said I was born [Bb] to be a guitar [Cm] picker

[Eb] But it all comes together [Bb] when we get down and start [Ab] to play
[Eb] Guess there's something about the [Bb] sound of a Gibson flat [Cm] top cranking out loud
[Ab] Just a pickin' and non [Eb]-stop get on the floor [Bb] and two-steppin' out [Ab] of the way
