E5 B5 A5 (repeat)  
 
E5            B5                A5   E5        B5  A5  
So tired of listening to the politicians  
E5                      B5       A5        E5    B5  A5  
You can't believe what you see in the news  
E5                   B5      A5      E5        B5  A5  
Lawyers trial with motions and revisions  
E5                   B5         A5         E5   B5  A5  
To spin a tale, to tip the scales of truth  
 
I work hard to make an honest living  

I do my best in everything I do  

Whether it's 9 to 5, football, cars, or fishin'  
E5                   B5       A5        E5  
I'm comin' home to hug and kiss on you  
 

C#5        A5            B5                    E5  
No lies or alibis, it's all so clear when I look in your eyes  
         A5                 (bass: A5         C#5 )  
Like an arrow shot, bullseye, straight and true  
          B5  
Like the Mississippi flows into the bayou  
 
Chorus:  
     E5      B5       A5       B5  
I'm coming home to see you baby  
           E5           B5      A5       B5  
You're the one thing that I know for sure  
E5     B5            E5      A5  
In a world that's goin' crazy  
          F#5                    E5  
You're a matter of survival, my heart and soul revival  
      A5                            B5                      A5  
Swear on a stack of Bibles, cross my heart and I will be here  
 B5   A5  B5                   E5  B5 A5  
For you, and that's the truth  
 
When I'm lost in the chaos and confusion  

You're the light that leads me to the shore  

I tell you girl in a world full of illusions  

You're the ray of truth that I've been looking for  
 
Now I'm late on the interstate  

Radio on at the end of the day  

Got the pedal to the medal, got the top rolled down  

I wanna scream and shout about the love we found  
 
CHORUS  
 
Bridge:
E5 B5 A5 B5  

       F#5 C#5 B5 C#5  
 

Like an arrow shot, bullseye, straight and true  

Like the Mississippi flows into the bayou  
 
CHORUS 2x  
 

E5 B5 A5 (x3)    E5
