[Verso 1]
 
G                                 C   D 
It ain't your first time down the road 
G                              C   D 
And the last place you need is home 
G                               C           D 
Another check from a small town shit fight 
G                           C 
At least it'll get you here tonight 
D        G   C  D 
Tonight 
 


[Verso 2]
 
G                                        C     D 
You turned down college for a job in the sticks 
G                                 C   D 
Red ribbon in his tail because he kicks 
G                               C      D 
And I can't tell what's coke or powder 
G                                  C    D 
When the speakers start to pump it louder 
 


[Refrão]
 
      C 
Because baby I'm playing at the thought 
   G                       D 
Of jute strings here and a Honda knot 
C 
Pushing calves up in the slack 
    G                D 
And hoping you might call me back, Or is it 
C 
Making one more short go 
      G                D/F# 
While I write songs on my banjo 
Em                D               C 
Wonderin' if it's really worth my time 
                            G 
Breakaway baby you've got a time

[Verso 3]
 
G                                        C     D 
That feral dog has tore a hole in all my jeans 
G                                         C            D 
Eating nothing but roadhouse steaks and a tin of baked beans 
G                               C   D 
You can't keep living like this dear 
G                                          C             D       G  C  D 
You'll win a check this weekend and you'll cash it in on beer 
 


[Verso 4]
 
G                                    C    D 
You've taken out about ten low power lines 
G                               C               D 
Posting on your Instagram until American Hat Co signs 
G                            C        D 
Biggest trailer in the whole campground 
G                                                     C    D 
But I can't wait to see you come here and win the All Round
