  A5
Let me tell you baby - If you want to pin me down

Better get your hammer, girl - and nail me to the ground
  D5
'Cause you won't find no grass stains

On the bottom of my feet
      A5
The only home I've ever known - is out there on the street.

              D5                                     A5
     You call me insane - Honey, That's my middle name
          D5                                     A5
     And I don't care which way the wind will blow
                     E5                         A5
     'Cause I don't know - So down the road I go.


                    Musical turn around

  A5
You see I tried to settle down - Not too long ago

You can lock my body up - But you can't calm my soul
         D5
I don't want to hurt you - Or put you on the shelf
         A5
But my daddy told me all my life

You've got to be yourself.


               Repeat the chorus

               Long instrumental

   D5
I'm sure there's lots of guys out there

Who've learned to tow the line
                                      A5
Compared to them my life may look a wreck
      D5
But girl, you've been to college

So you ahould know by now
  E5
And if you can't understand me 

What the hell do you expect

  A5
I'm giving you fair warning - I'm gonna say goodbye

And when I'm walking out the door

Don't want to hear you cry
   D5
There's so much highway out there

That I ain't never seen
     A5
And all I need is cigarettes, guitars, and gasoline.


               Repeat the chorus

        A5
Tag: Down the road I go
         A5
     I'll see you around

        A5
     'Cause I'm leaving town
        A5
     Yeah, yeah, yeahhh      (fades out).
