[Em] [Bb] [B] [A] [E]
Well that label man said son I can't sing a little bit more clear
Said the voice might be too genuine, the song's a little too sincere
Can't you sing a little more about laws than [A] the way things [E] used to be
Don't just worry about writing them [B] songs, leave everything else to [E] me
Daddy was a highwayman but he never wrote any old country song
Papa never stayed out raising hell till the break of dawn
But he raised a proud coal miner's [A] daughter and I'm proud to be her [E] son
Told me boy I don't care if you hit it [B] big because you're already [E] number one
But the [A] way it goes, this [E] dad and me
He said you ain't gotta read between the lines, you just gotta [B] turn the page
[A] Well the most outlawed man ever [E] done
Give a good woman a ring and that's the way it [A] goes
[B] Life ain't fair in the [E] world is it
[A] [E] [A]
[E] [Abm] [E]
Well I still got the wife and the dog but I swapped my truck out for a van
Gonna hit the road before the end of that long white line in the promised land
You wanna hear my song, there you [A] go
New sound [E] blows the rage, you can always find me in smoke or porn
[B] But that sound in a [E] dim lit [Gb] state is the [A] way it goes
This [E] dad and me
He said you ain't gotta read between the lines, you just gotta [B] turn the page
[Abm] Well [A] the most outlawed man ever done
[E] Give a good woman a ring and that's the way it goes
Life [B] ain't fair in the world [E] is it
That's the way it goes, life [B] ain't fair in the world [E] is it
Well that label man said son I can't sing a little bit more clear
