D5 
I swear I gave up drinkin 
    G5 
Sometimes I have no choice 
          D5 
After singin hard six nights straight 
          A5 
A little sip sure helps my voice 
           D5                         
Don't get me wrong, I love these songs 
          G5 
And I know I got it made 
         D5 
Sometimes my mind starts driftin' 
           A5               D5 
When I'm up here on the stage 
 
 
D5 
To that last half mile of dirt road  
          G5 
And that oak tree on the hill 
         D5 
To them dogs out barkin in the yard  
         A5 
And that tractor in the field 
        D5 
To them kids up on the front porch screamin' 
G5 
Mama daddy's home 
          D5                                   A5   
When I'm out here I'm just thinking 'bout the things I miss  
     D5 
the most 
                 
 
D5 
Yeah the hardest thing I have to do 
        G5 
Is hang up this telephone 
        D5 
There's so much lrft to talk about  
    A5 
And I've been gone so long 
   D5 
So put them kids on one more time 
G5 
Before they go to sleep 
           D5 
And baby, know no matter where I go 
A5              D5 
All that I can see' 
 

          D5 
Is that last half mile of dirt road  
          G5 
And that oak tree on the hill 
         D5 
To them dogs out barkin in the yard  
         A5 
And that tractor in the field 
        D5 
To them kids up on the front porch screamin' 
G5

The things I miss the most 
               C5      C5 
And it's killing me I hate to leave 
     C5               C5 
This family that you've given me 
     C5            C5 
God only knows, I hate to go 
      C5                     C5  
So hold me close and let me let you know 
                            D5

            D5 
Of all the places that you've ever been 
           A5                  D5 
What's your favorite place to go 
 
 
         D5 
To that last half mile of dirt road
