[A][D][Dsus4][D][Bm]
[G][Gsus2][A][Asus4][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]Runnin' round in this new truck
[Bm]Bank lets me borrow from
month to month
I'm [G]runnin' out of credit,
and find a little cash on the [A]radio
[D]Standin' still they're blowin' past,
[Bm]numbers on cars goin' NASCAR fast
[G]What I wouldn't give for a slow down,
[A]don't ya know?
'Cause where [G]I come from,
only the [A]horses run
When the [G]day is done,
we take it [A]easy

[Verse 2]
[D]Meanwhile back at mama's
The [Bm]porch light's on,
come on in if you wanna
Sup[G]per's on the stove and
beer's in the fridge
[A]Red sun sinkin' out low on the ridge
[D]Games on the tube and daddy
smokes cigar[Bm]ettes
Whiskey keeps his whistle wet
[G]Funny the things you thought
you'd never miss
In [A]a world gone crazy as [D]this
[Dsus4][D]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][Gsus2][G][A]

[Verse 3]
Well [D]I found a girl and we
don't fit in here
[Bm]Talk about how hard it
is to breathe here
Even [G]with the windows down can't
catch a southern breeze here
[A]One of these days gonna pack
it up and leave here

[Verse 4]
'Cause [D]meanwhile back at Mama's
The [Bm]porch light's on,
come on in if you [G]wanna
[D]Supper[G]'s on the stove
and beer's in the fridge
[A]Red sun sinkin' out low on the ridge
[D]Games on the tube and Daddy
[G]smokes [D]cigarettes
[Bm]Whiskey keeps his whistle wet
[G]Funny the things you thought
you'd never miss
In a [A]world gone crazy as this

[Verse 5]
Oh I [D]miss yeah a little dirt on the road,
[Bm]I miss corn growin' in a row
[D]I m[G]iss being somebody everybody knows,
there [A]everybody knows everybody
I [D]miss those small town routes,
[Bm]walkin' around in muddy boots
[G]The sound of rain on an old tin roof
It's [A]time we head on back

[Verse 6]
[A]
'Cause [D]meanwhile back at mama's
The [Bm]for sale sign's goin'
up and I'm gonna
[G]Dump this truck and the little I got
[A]On a loan to own and a three-acre lot
lot
Put [D]supper on the stove and beer
in [Bm]the fridge
Goin' for broke and we're
gonna be rich
[G]Watch the sun settin' on the ridge
Baby [A]tell me what you think about this

[Verse 7]
[D]Me and you back at
[Bm]mama's[G][A]
Yeah [D]me and you back at mama's

[Outro 1]
